Service Sites ​

Full Circle FarmCorps is an AmeriCorps program operated by the Arkansas Resource Conservation and Development Council and EngageAR in collaboration with partner sites throughout regions in Arkansas, referred to as "Service Sites." These sites are community- or school-based gardens, nonprofits, or Arkansas state entities. This is where the produce is grown, learning flourishes, and community connections happen!

Boston Mountain Heritage Society 

Located in Mountainburg, the Boston Mountain Heritage Society is dedicated to education and preservation of the heritage skills, customs and traditions of our ancestors. 

Drennen-Scott House 

Overlooking the Arkansas River, the commanding Drennen-Scott House was initially the home of the Revolutionary War descendant John Drennen and his family. It is now a “working laboratory” for University of Arkansas – Fort Smith students as they recreate the century-and-a-half-old home. Service Members are working on creating a historic vegetable garden at this site.
