Just the Two of Us (Part III)

From Soil to Soul

This week on Deep Dives & Light Laughs, we sit down with Jon Belber, Education Director at Friends of Holly Hill Farm—a nonprofit working farm and outdoor classroom dedicated to regenerative agriculture and hands-on learning.  Jon shares the story of how Holly Hill balances growing nutrient-rich food with cultivating eco-literacy for all ages, from school garden programs to seasonal farm initiatives. We dive into what regenerative practices really look like, the challenges (and joys) of teaching kids in the fields, and the ways small daily choices can add up to big impact for our planet. He also shares his path to Holly Hill and the mission behind the farm. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for your food, a few practical tips to reduce waste at home, and ideas for how to get involved—whether that’s volunteering, visiting the farm stand, or supporting school gardens.  Learn more about Friends of Holly Hill Farm via Instagram and Facebook @hollyhillfarmcohasset and to purchase tickets to the upcoming Farm Fest on Saturday, September 27th visit https://hollyhillfarm.org/farmfest2025.
