Matt Steiman and his partner, Jenn Halpin, manage Wilson College's Fulton Farm, a 150-member community-supported agriculture enterprise with steadily increasing membership. Steiman focuses on biodiversity and water conservation, accomplished through the integration of flowering plants with vegetables, careful soil management, drip-tape irrigation and a no-till system. He uses mulch and rolled-down cover crops to manage weeds, a system he tested with help from a SARE grant.

Steiman is an enthusiastic educator. He and a CSA member constructed a biodeisel processor and built a wind generator and solar panels to be used as educational tools in the community. In other examples of his outreach, he leads renewable energy demonstrations, while the farm hosts soap-making and cooking workshops. The farm also showcases an interpretive trail, a straw-bale building and a composting toilet. Each year, the farm hosts interns and work-study students. An adjunct professor at Wilson College teaching organic gardening and agroecology courses, Steiman leads several field days and educational visits by children and helped start the local farmers market.
