Flying Horse Farms Staff Volunteers at Granny B

At least 18 staff members from Flying Horse Farms, Mt. Gilead, OH, volunteered today at Granny B Farms, weeding strawberry boxes and raspberry fields. The workers hail from the Midwest, New England, and Ireland. Many are college students, or recent grads, majoring in anthropology, marketing, and pre-med. Others are members of the Alcoa Foundation's Conservation and Sustainability Fellowship Program. All are committed to enriching the lives of the children who attend their program.

Flying Horse Farms is a summer camp providing "serious fun"* for children with serious illness, such as cancer, asthma, heart conditions, and more. Each volunteer gave a brief video interview telling us about the work and play at Flying Horse Farms. Below are a few photos from today's work experience. Videos to be posted soon.



Granny B Farms is pleased to sponsor the Flying Horse with organically grown fruit and vegetables each summer. Thank you to the staff for all their hard work today, and their dedication to a worthy cause.
