KC Farm School at Gibbs Road Details
KC Farm School, a fourteen-acre peri-urban farm in southern Wyandotte County, brings individuals on-farm, hands-on connecting them to land and soil, food, community and opportunity.We grow diversified vegetables regeneratively on two acres through no-till practice, operate a 6000 sf community greenhouse, and offer education to people of all ages, ancestries, and abilities. Our on-farm farmers market brings our neighbors to the farm and provides opportunities for other local producers to meet their customers. We run a 40-member CSA, belong to the producer-owned KC Food Hub, and maintain relationships with several local restaurants. We offer educational opportunities for everyone beginning at age 4, through Ag Explorers, Jr. Growers, Youth Farm Apprenticeships, Growing Growers Apprenticeships, adult workshops, and for volunteers. Our lending library is stocked with meaningful books on agriculture for adults and children, about biodynamic agriculture, agroecology, circular economy, sustainability, beekeeping, native plants, and more.All our food and our educational programming are always pay-what-you're able because we know that (and now have three years of operational proof) when we all share what we have, we all have what we need.We are in the process of discerning our interaction with newly-acquired eleven acres of raw, rolling land to the east. We believe we will grow more food and share the space with our community. We call this land Common Ground.We see the farm at the center of its community generating an inspiring environment transforming the individual and society through community-wide, multi-generational, participatory, and collaborative food projects while it provides vocational training, job opportunities, healing, and fun.We believe action is the solution and we step forward each day growing food, holding space, and providing opportunity for others to join in and share their ideas and the work.
