Segil Urban Farm Fellow Endowment – for future generations

Share

We are so proud to have endowed an annual fellowship for an Urban Farm Fellow at the Shalom Institute and Camp in Malibu Hills. This fellowship will enable a young adult to spend the summer at the camp becoming expert in Urban farming and transferring that knowledge to the thousands of children and families who attend the camp year round. They will learn all about sustainable organic farming – imbuing this teaching with the values outlined in The Ten Commandments – as well as respect and care for nature and the world around us – regardless of whether we live in an urban environment or in rural areas. This is what we have done at our Little Farm and now we have established this fellowship so as to preserve in perpetuity these same beliefs for the community at large. Here is a picture of us with the Camp CEO and Director, the first Segil Family Farm Fellow and our son and four grandchildren. Such an exciting day!
