A year ago the Board of Directors, in discussion with Red Wiggler Farm and the Care Farming Network, identified the need for additional gardening programs that provide hands-on vocational training and job skills development in the agricultural/farming area. Care Farming also addresses the underemployment of individuals with I/DD and/or Autism. As a result of those discussions, XO began working on a small pilot program that includes two individuals with I/DD and Autism as well as volunteers at a small donated farm space in the Brookeville area.
