Welcome to MHLEF!
Traditionally, farms throughout the world have been places where human beings can learn about and participate in life processes. When someone sows a seed, then harvests seed from the same plant, they see the unfolding and development of a life from beginning to end. Through the Meadowlark Hearth Living Environment Foundation (MHLEF) we wish to invite the wider community to connect with and learn from the vital mosaic of the farm’s living environment.
MHLEF promotes opportunities in cultural, social and economic life within the living fabric of farms that provide them their nourishment. Lastly, we intend to help farms go into the future by searching for ways to hold the land and manage it through land trusts and trained young agriculturalists.
