Graduation commencement has ended another semester at NTCC and with mixed feelings we graduated some of our favorite students on the farm!  With three whole weeks ahead of us, it will be the best we can do to be keepers of the farm until our new Work 4 Scholarship students arrive willing and ready to continue planting and help with the harvest on our sustainable market farm.
