Workshop participants, tour attendees, and sustainability enthusiasts stay in contact and help keep spreading those seeds to others in their own communities and families. Our sustainers are committed long-term partners that spread their financial contribution out monthly, providing consistent and steady support to keep our programs and initiatives running smoothly. Sustainers have first access to exclusive events on the farm, receive monthly gifts like compost or gardening workshops and guided yoga sessions, and attend our yearly "sustainers day," where we come together on the farm for a tour, hands-on workshops, and a farm-to-table dinner.

Plenitud vt will allow us to expand our mission of fostering sustainable, harmonious living and respond to the demand from supporters and student groups hungry to experience community living, resilience, and sustainability first hand in a new geographical context. We're in the early stages of solidifying our vision for plenitud vt to become a new haven for service, sustainability, and community, mirroring the success of plenitud pr over the past 17 years. This expansion offers exciting opportunities, especially for our academic/service-learning initiative. With many partner high schools and colleges already in the northeast, plenitud vt will strengthen our existing relationships and expand our offerings in pr and vt to an even wider audience.
