Angelic Organics Learning Center was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit and partner to Angelic Organics farm in 1999. Executive Director, Tom Spaulding, and his wife, Neddy Astudillo, joined forces with Biodynamic farmer, John Peterson, and a team of farmers/volunteers to establish a learning center that would foster a vibrant local food economy. Operating out of a renovated chicken coop, they offered workshops, coordinated the Upper Midwest CRAFT farmer training alliance, and launched educational programs in Chicago and Rockford.
