Since 2018 New Perennials has been in residence at Middlebury College in Vermont. The College hosts New Perennials Director and scholar in residence Bill Vitek, a philosopher, educator and long-time collaborator with Wes Jackson and The Land Institute. The College and the surrounding Champlain Valley of Vermont serve as a classroom, laboratory, seed bank, and community to explore perennial thinking and action. In addition to developing courses, scholarly and curricular materials, the Middlebury Hub features engagement with community partners, crop testing at the College farm, an annual conference, and engagement with departments and programs across campus. Students and perennial practitioners come together to grow and root a network of perennial and diverse thinkers and doers.

Below you will find a short video from the first semester of teaching at Middlebury College and the first conference in December 2018, Nourishing Change in Ag and Culture - A Conversation.   To get involved and learn more about our work, please connect with us.
