A very special THANK YOU to Melissa Sprecher for her kindness and leadership in bringing her students out to our farm to gain hands-on experience, learn about lavender farming, and WORK REALLY HARD!
These students absolutely crushed it! 💪
After all that hard work, they wrapped up the day with some fishing and had a blast together. 🎣
We are so grateful and thankful for their partnership and support of our small family farm business. Supporting the next generation of agriculture means so much to us.

Eight grade ag is learning about ethanol. They have learned about the corn plant and the process of making ethanol. They had to research the break even point of ethanol based on corn prices, positives and negatives of using it in vehicles, and then come to an opinion on whether we should use it and why. Today they tested the reaction of different parts of the corn plant to yeast and heat to determine which part makes the most ethanol .

What a way to wrap up Teacher Appreciation Week at Ithaca! Our community truly went above and beyond to make our staff feel valued. We would like to extend a tremendous thank you to Kaylee Hatlan and her wonderful group of thankful parents for treating staff to a delicious breakfast spread Friday morning. Starting the day with that much kindness (and variety of caffeine options!) meant the world to us.
The celebration didn't stop there though, because the Michael and Erin Starks family then provided staff with an incredible Pizza Hut lunch giving us the fuel needed to get us through the final stretch of the day!
Gia Maestri also took the time to treat our staff to perennials to take home and enjoy not just during Teacher Appreciation Week, but for years to come!
Weeks like this remind us all at Ithaca why we do what we do. It's more than a job here, WE ARE FAMILY. To every parent that sent a note, shared a smile, or contributed to any of the meals this week... THANK YOU.
