The farm at the John de la Howe campus produces a number of crops throughout the year, both while students are enrolled in the school year and during the summer months. Among the wide variety crops grown across our 1,310 acres are strawberries, tomatoes, squash, zucchini, black-eyed peas, green beans, okra and sweet corn.

The farm also produces a variety of grains, cover crops and deer corn (which is sold to the community in bags and pallets). Students take an active role in growing and harvesting these crops. Meticulous charting of our crop production shows ongoing growth in crop production, thanks to the hard work of our farm staff and student assistants.
