"Building Healthy Futures"

Gorman Heritage Farm, a non-profit 122-acre working farm and outdoor education center located in the Village of Evendale, provides the opportunity to explore and learn the history, methods and values of a working family farm in a natural setting.

Gorman Heritage Farm promotes:

• Hands-on education for people of all ages (particularly local students) about agriculture, local habitats and the value of manual labor

• The preservation of a distinct regional identity and local traditions, specifically the history of Gorman Farm and values of the Gorman family that helped it flourish

• An understanding of modern food systems and how sustainable agriculture, the consumption of locally grown food and responsible land use can support a healthy society

• The entrepreneurial spirit that seeks new avenues for self-sustaining, business opportunities

• Community building that highlights the essential connections between people, land, and meaningful labor
