14 youth have volunteered at the farm this year planting and cultivating crops. This has been an extremly difficult year for the program. The program relies on school trips for the students to attend and participate in educational programs. Covid has prevented the release of inmates to the farm which are also a crucial part of youth programming. With the lifting of the Covid restrictions inmates are now returning to the Southern MD program and will be able to be transferred to the Caroline County program in the Fall. With students returning to in person school we look forward to the program being fully operational in the Fall of FY22. Several volunteers including youth (14), have worked at planting and harvesting through the spring and summer FY21/FY22 at the farm.
