About the Noyo Food Forest
The Noyo Food Forest (NFF) is a small climate-smart production farm spread out over roughly an acre on the Fort Bragg High School campus. Founded in 2006, it is also a center for education in community-based agriculture, nutrition, sustainable pest management, developing increased biodiversity, carbon sequestration, and other climate-resilient practices. NFF offers free and low-cost workshops, paid internships, and classes in organic, community-based agriculture to train new local farmers and gardeners to feed the community. NFF works to cultivate a healthy local food system by creating opportunities for Mendocino Coast youth and community to learn about, grow, and access sustainably grown, garden-fresh foods. The organization is supported financially by plant and produce sales plus donations and grants, and operated by staff, board of directors, students and volunteers.
