About the Charity

There's a special place in Maryland where students can dig in the dirt, take a hike, and catch an unbeatable glimpse of the Potomac. That place is Alice Ferguson Foundation's Hard Bargain Farm, which annually hosts thousands of K-8 students who interact with plants and animals about which many of them � until now � have only read. More than 8,000 students participate in Bridging the Watershed which takes students to national and state parks in the Potomac Watershed where they learn, hands-on, about how a watershed works and how to keep it clean. Another 10,000 volunteers participate in a day-long cleanup of the river as part of AFF's comprehensive Trash Free Potomac Watershed Initiative. Each year, Alice Ferguson Foundation helps thousands of people connect with nature by milking a cow or cleaning a river bank. Won't you pitch in?
