Every year the Farm grows more vital to Vermont and our global village in which every human being participates to make the World a more livable, equitable, and sustainable place through Education. It is heartening to read that societal funding toward the betterment of Humanity still carries weight in today's turbulent world. Perhaps someday it will outpace the spending on profit and greed, and it will touch, and enrich the lives of every single human being. We all hope for a peaceful, caring, and sustainable planet Earth: every ones entitled home. The power of Education, as expressed at Shelburne Farms, can achieve this goal.
