At First Light Farm & Learning Center, we celebrate both plant and human diversity as we to strive to educate ourselves and our customers (whether CSA, u-pick, mini farmers, or the public in general) about our interdependence with the natural world and our ever increasing need to care for, protect and live in gratitude for this vital relationship between healthy soils and the well-being of our own bodies and the communities we live in.

At our 3+ acre farm, we live out our mission of healthy soils = healthy families = healthy communities = healthy planet through our different programs and regenerative farming practices. Although our mission and commitment remain the same, our abilities and practices change as we evolve in our knowledge of how to live and farm in the ecosystem we care for.
