Perennial flowering grasslands are managed with rotational grazing of domesticated animals, including sheep. Rotational grazing mimics patterns of wild animals, enabling plant roots to grow deeper, improving water quality and sequestering carbon.
Students engage in experiential programming ranging from studying soil biology under the microscope to analyzing and designing systems as well as planting new landscape features across the farm.
Ocean Hour Farm’s education program hosted 231 students in 2023 through day visits, summer camps and internships.
