"The Farm"
The farm project enables us to develop educational programs, publications, curriculum, and resources for career development, gardening, self-sufficiency, and outdoor education. We enjoy many affiliations, such as with a Christian coalition, Florida Virtual School, colleges, neighbors and local farmers.

Nancy visiting senator Arronberg in Tallahassee in 2004 regarding education legislation and scholarships for disabled students. Our program endured for 4 years until senator King from Lakeland, under pressure from the teacher's union and others, wrote a new law with a provision that ended our model. We met every audit standard, except the law requiring our students to stay in one building all day. This was the new restriction that was added in the law, targeted to end our model. In my opinion it was motivated by greed.

The final production of the long anticipated Music CD includes original songs with accompanying musicians from several churches. This is a culmination of produced music from the many years when Bob and Nancy were involved in music ministry.
Another CD may be in the works soon!
