Review for Freedom Farm Community, Middletown, NY, USA
My friends and I went up to Freedom Farm at the recommendation of a mutual friend familiar with the farm and the owners, Edgar and Ann. It was so inspiring to see people of faith working the land and educating others about growing food and seeking food justice. Ann and Edgar started Freedom Farm to provide a space for youth from the Bronx to visit and learn about growing food sustainably - doing their part to fill a critical need in helping people learn where food comes from. Freedom Farm seems like a tremendous blessing to anyone who has the chance to visit.
