Inspired by John Drop’s vision of sustainable, community-driven farming, The Drop Collaborative exists to teach, nourish, and empower future generations — starting from the ground up.
🎓 Recognized by the TN Dept. of Education as a Best Practices CTE Model.
Our Four Pillars

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. ❞
