What is Fozzie's Farm?
Fozzie’s Farm is a budding farm education center that is taking a unique community approach to connecting people to land, and to each other. Donated to MLC in 2016, this beautiful 83-acre farm outside Lewis, CO is the center of MLC’s community education programming and the site of our recently constructed community classroom. Since our programming began in 2017 Fozzie’s has hosted over 750 youth and 200 adults. Explore below for more information on our programs and opportunities for the community to enjoy Fozzie’s.

Summer Ag Immersion Program
Started in the summer of 2018 through a wonderful partnership with Southwest Open School (SWOS), our Summer Ag Immersion Program provides local high school students the opportunity to engage in a 4-week hands on learning experience at Fozzie’s Farm and around the region. Students learn valuable leadership and teambuilding skills, explore a variety of agricultural knowledge, and gain insight into career opportunities. For full participation students will receive a weekly stipend of $125 and may be eligible for earning school credit.
The 2023 Ag Immersion Program will run from June 5-29. To learn more, click here. To apply, click here.
