Chrysalis Biodynamic Agricultural Learning Center was formed to support and broaden the educational activities of the Community Farm of Ann Arbor. Chrysalis was established as a nonprofit corporation in September 2011. During 2012, we’ll be continuing to organize, applying for tax-exempt status, starting to transfer educational activities from the farm to Chrysalis, and beginning to apply for educational grants.
Find out more about the kinds of educational activities Chrysalis promotes.
Like the Community Farm, Chrysalis is governed by the consensus of its members at membership meetings.
