between Vikings and monks. “It was so much fun,” said student Laurel Carter. “We did a table talk seeing the monks’ point of view and the Vikings’ point of view, and we got to explore this in a way that we wouldn’t normally get to do.” Maggie Reed, a seventh-grader who was also part of the Vikings project, noted that she liked having the opportunity to discover new skills. “It’s been fun to get to know the people in our class better as we use the equipment and work together to figure things out,” she said. For seventh-grader Sam Pastor, the podcast room provided a chance to push out of his comfort zone. “I was the person who did all of the work on the soundboard,” he said, noting that this role made him the “podcast engineer.” “It looks complicated to use, but it’s very easy and it’s fun to do.”
On a stretch of preser ved farmland in Elizabethtown, transformation happens every d ay at a s pace that o ffers reconnection - with the land, with one another and with the essential act of growing food. This is Wittel Farm, a nonprofit on 85 acres of land with a long history of care, now being reimagined as a place where food, community and environmental stewardship meet. Records date the property to the mid-1700s, and long before that it was cared for by the Susquehannock people. In the 1980s, Chuck and Katie Wittel placed the property into a land trust, gifting it to the Lutheran Camping Corporation. While not much was produced at the farm for many years, that changed in 2016, when the farm’s current manager, the Rev. Matt Lenahan, began the Growing Project, a partnership between the Lutheran Camping Corp., the Lower Susquehanna Synod and Hunger-Free Lancaster County. L enahan, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Akron, grew up on a large commercial farm in New York and once thought he would never farm again after entering ministry. His thinking shifted as he became more aware of food insecurity and the fragility of modern food systems. “I really star ted to think about the food system and how food-dependent we are because so few of us are actually participating in the food production,” he said. “We’ve really stepped

earing headphones and speaking into microp h o n e s , s t u d e n t s at Manheim Central Middle School are putting their knowledge to work while building real-world skills. A new podcast room lets them work with professional equipment while exploring their lessons in creative, hands-on ways. For three years, the district has used podcasting equipment acquired through a grant from MCFEE, the Manheim Central Foundation for Educational Enrichment. Those funds provided mobile carts for use at all schools in the district. “This is all what professional podcasters use,” said Liz Lubeskie, secondary coordinator of online learning and technology integration. “We wanted to make sure that

the kids’ experience was as close to what a real podcaster’s experience would be.” Students recorded wherever they could - from auditoriums to stairwells - editing out background noise later. When Lubeskie moved her office this year, she saw an opportunity to turn an unused adjacent room in the middle school into a podcast space. The room was outfitted with soundproofing, and Abobe editing software further reduced background noise. During professional development days, Lubeskie trained teachers on how to use the equipment. They were eager to get started with their classes, she said, developing projects that could use the space. Seventh-graders recently used the podcast room to explore a history lesson about skirmishes

Protecting children starts at home. Secure your firearms to prevent tragedy.
In Lancaster County, firearms are the leading cause of suicide death among children. Nationally, they are the number one cause of pediatric death. Even when warned, children are naturally curious—and that curiosity can be fatal. Studies show that suicide rates are four times higher in homes with firearms. But there’s something you can do: store firearms safely.
• Always keep firearms in a locked safe or lockbox.
• Ensure they are unloaded and secured.

• Store ammunition separately and securely. • Use cable locks or gun cases to prevent unauthorized access.

Sixth-graders used the podcast equipment during a class assignment about earthquakes and other natural disasters. “We had to research and then record ourselves presenting about them,” said Morgan Blanck, noting that she liked the flexibility the software provided to not worry about perfection on the first try. “Now, after you’re done recording, you can go through Adobe and cut out your mistakes. I said ‘um’ quite a few times, but I could go through and take those out, and it sounds better.” For the sixth-grade project, the students recorded public service announcements about natural disasters, Lubeskie said, noting that representatives from Lancaster County Emergency Management came to

the class to talk about what local emergency responders do. “The students were researching natural disasters in Asia, so it was very cool to tie in our community with what they were learning about in the rest of the world,” she said. Sixth-grader Peyton Kirkland loved that recording the podcast offered a different way to present what she’d learned beyond a traditional test or quiz. “I worked in a group, so it was a very collaborative experience,” she said, adding that the students helped each other throughout the project. “It also helped me with a lot of life skills, like public speaking and being able to face your mistakes when you mess up.” Beyond having fun and providing a unique way to learn, the podcast equipment is also providing an opportunity to learn about future careers, Lubeskie said. “We love getting this equipment into the kids’ hands so they can see how it works,” she remarked. “There are a lot of jobs around here that use equipment like this. If they can gather how this all works in just a small space, they can go into a job in a much larger space and not be as intimidated.” Now that the students are settling in and getting comfortable with the equipment, Lubeskie

away as a culture from agriculture as a principal way people live, and I think that’s problematic.” Knowing that access to fresh, locally grown food was a challenge in the county, Lenahan asked a question: “What if we grow food together and give it away?” From that idea, a community-based effort to produce food for Lancaster County’s charitable food system began to grow.

flowers alongside food. The flowers have increased pollinators such as bees and butterflies, boosting fruit and vegetable production. Ceinwyn Erb, an Elizabethtown College junior studying environmental science, began volunteering at Wittel Farm in September. “It’s been wonderful to have every week a set time to be outside, be in nature, working with my hands, doing something that is positively impacting the local community and the local environment,” Erb said. Lenahan describes Wittel Farm as “community-sustained agriculture,” a model that invites people into the work of food production rather than simply consuming its results. “We like to talk about food sovereignty, acknowledging that every one of us eats, so we all have a stake in food production,” he said. “It’s about really helping people to reclaim an intrinsic human connection to the natural world and to growing food.” He is careful to note that Wittel Farm is not about “agritainment.” “I really want this to be a place where the community can get involved and have a real experience,” he said. “I think there is actually joy in doing this work together. … I really love bringing people together on the farm who have no experience with farming at all, no experience with food production, and they get to have an experience here, whether planting something, tending or harvesting. It’s transformational for people.” This year, the farm plans to add chickens, expand partnerships and hire more staff, including a farm educator role Chism will fill after graduation. Though the land is held by the Lutheran Camping Corp. and protected by Lancaster Farmland Trust, Lenahan sees Wittel Farm as belonging to the whole community. “This is a place for everyone,” he said. “Young children, seniors, people with no experience at all. Everyone has something to contribute.” For more information or to volunteer, visit www.lutherancamp ing.org/the-wittel-farm.
