About
Amrita Farms at the Amma Center Michigan is devoted to community enrichment through agri-science research and education. We facilitate real world and hands-on education programs designed to empower people through working with Nature.
With awareness of sustainability and our impact on planet Earth rising, many people are looking for ways to train and skill themselves towards a more eco-friendly lifestyle. Amrita farms offers numerous sustainability courses in a variety of disciplines - permaculture food systems, renewable energy, bee keeping, natural building, compost making and so much more.

Education
Amrita Farms has also launched "The Future Farm" - our approach to place based K-12 education. Through embracing the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) platform on a working organic farm, we offer students and teachers an unforgettable experience in whole systems learning.
In 2015, we welcomed our first group of University research residents. As part of their residency, participants completed their 72 hour Permaculture Design Course (PDC), earning their certification. Residents also completed farm integrated research projects, on topics ranging from permaculture apple orchards to meditation in K-12 Schools.
Please consider joining us on this journey to wholeness, as our experienced teachers lead hands on courses designed to give students a strong foundation towards Nature's path. For more information, or to schedule a Future Farm experience for your students, please email: info@amritafarms.com
