Ribbon cutting celebrates Ocean Knoll Farm

ENCINITAS — More than a year ago, debris blanketed the ground of a one-acre plot next to Ocean Knoll Elementary. 

But Mim Michelove and Camille Sowinski, along with the help of volunteers, spruced up the land, converting it into a school farm that grows produce for the nine schools in the Encinitas Union School District. On Oct. 3, school and city officials, as well as residents, marked the farm’s progress with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
