Jewish Farm School information


The Jewish Farm School (JFS) is an environmental education non-profit founded by Nati Passow, Simcha Schwartz, Robert Friedman, Rachel Tali Kaplan and Shemariah Blum-Evitts in 2005. The organization's mission is to "practice and promote sustainable agriculture and to support food systems rooted in justice and Jewish traditions."[1] The school educates participants through farm-based service learning experiences, practical skills trainings, Jewish text study, and outreach and consulting. JFS runs a variety of sustainability-themed and farm-based programs with the help of Rabbi and Director of Programs Jacob Fine. It also oversees the Farm at Eden Village Camp in Putnam Valley, New York.
