The Vineyard Gazette, February 20, 2023
“Revitalizing 4-H on the Island began five years ago, led by Brian Athearn and Julie Scott, president and vice president of the Martha’s Vineyard Agricultural Society.”
“Over the next five months, children will be able to learn about painting and sketching, baking, birdwatching and crafts of yesteryear, in addition to practical experience with farms and animals.”
“The program choices are a result of collaborations between Island nonprofits brought together by the Martha’s Vineyard Agricultural Society….Partner organizations include the Martha’s Vineyard Museum, Sheriff’s Meadow Foundation, Slough Farm and The FARM Institute. And a grant from Dukes Conservation District makes it possible for students to attend free.”
