It is with bittersweet emotions that I announce the end of my employment with the Friends of Schumacher Farm to move onto the next step in my career. Although my employment is ending, I will always consider myself part of the Schumacher Farm family. I look forward to learning more about prairie plants on work days, continuing to enjoy the park with friends, and helping with community events. -Amanda
