At Farm Discovery, we’re lucky to have an amazing community of supporters who bring their energy and dedication to our mission. One such superstar is Mary Wood.
Last year, we were proud to welcome a new supporter, Mary Wood of Aptos. Mary chooses to support Farm Discovery because she believes in the power of local food and the importance of creating opportunities for youth in our community.
Mary was inspired by Farm Discovery’s commitment to connecting children and families with healthy, local produce and hands-on learning experiences on the farm.
Her generosity helps make scholarships, produce donations, and youth education programs possible. Mary’s gift shows how one person’s support can make a meaningful difference in the lives of local families.
Why Farm Discovery’s Mission Matters
She believes that every young person deserves access to nature, nutritious food, and a supportive place to learn and explore.
Thank You, Mary!
Her generosity helps make scholarships, produce donations, and youth education programs possible. Mary’s gift shows how one person’s support can make a meaningful difference in the lives of local families.
Because of her donation, we:
- Donated 72,000 pounds of produce in 2025
- Started our gleaning program to increase the amount of food diverted from the waste stream and onto kitchen tables
- Offered scholarships for children to learn cooking, nutrition, and healthy habits on the farm
We invite you to join Mary in supporting our Annual Campaign or Spring Fund Drive. Your donation today helps us reach more youth and strengthen our community food system in the year ahead.
With your support, we are cultivating a passion for agriculture and healthy living in the next generation.
