Planting Seeds of Purpose
Inspired by John Drop’s vision of sustainable, community-driven farming, The Drop Collaborative exists to teach, nourish, and empower current and future generations — starting from the ground up.
Our Four Pillar Approach
Recognized by the Tennessee Department of Education as a Best Practices CTE Model
We provide free usage of our farmland and structures for youth-led farming initiatives.
We partnered with Unaka High School to teach a TN Dept of Education award-winning agricultural program.
We donate harvest to local families in need and to local food support programs.
Our 'Drop by the Farm' Days pair young children with
student mentors to learn, grow, and play.
❝ The skills you learn on a farm are skills you can transfer to any career. ❞
Listen to the experiences and impact of this program from teachers, students, local nonprofits, government officials and more — in their own words!
