Zero Fox Farm Foundation is a nonprofit agricultural education organization developing a producer-focused curriculum in diversified farm business management, enterprise development, and practical risk-management strategies for beginning and small-scale farmers.
Through hands-on instruction, digital learning resources, and planned collaboration with experienced producers, the Foundation connects practical production skills with the business knowledge needed to evaluate opportunities, manage costs, and build resilient agricultural enterprises.
The Foundation is developing a catalog of approximately 40 educational offerings, ranging from mushroom cultivation to advanced market homesteading. Programs will connect agricultural skills, self-reliance, and community food resilience.
The farm’s instructors bring experience from approximately 20 classes over eight years. The Foundation builds on that teaching experience to make practical learning more accessible.
Our class schedule is expected to be available February 2, 2027. Get class announcements by email.
