I am interested in her perspective because of the unique characteristics of the school&#8217;s farm, including the funding it receives, its commitment to organic farming, and other ethical practices. Some sample questions I have are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How have your priorities changed throughout your tenure as director of the farm?<\/li>\n<li>How difficult is it maintaining a commitment to organic agriculture on a large scale?\n<ul>\n<li>Is this made easier by having livestock as well as growing produce?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Could you foresee a farm model like this possible without funding from Dickinson?\n<ul>\n<li>If not, what would need to be altered to make it possible?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>What identity does the college farm posses compared to surrounding farms in the county?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As I have not completed this interview yet, I do not have any photos or videos to post from it.
