Given what you know is possible at Knoll Farm, what are your dreams for changes to our Fellowship that could best support individual change-makers?*

Better Selves Fellowship is currently one week (six days, seven nights) long. On a scale of 1-10, (one being not strongly and 10 being most strongly) how strongly do you feel the program should be made longer (10 days or more)?*

Is creating opportunities for alumni to return as important, less important or more important than expanding new fellowships?*

More and more people are applying specifically to focus on a writing project. Do you favor having a separate writing retreat, or is it a better experience to have a mix of people working on different things?*

On a scale of 1-10, (one being not important, 10 being most important), how important/valuable would it be for us to offer more concrete ways to intersect meaningfully with the farm while fellows are here?*
12345678910

Do you have specific suggestions for the kind of interactions with the farm that would be most helpful?*

Similarly, serving healthy, locally grown food is a core part of what we offer fellows. Do you have thoughts for how our food program, our chef, and the kitchen itself could be more a part of the fellowship?

Having thought about these questions, what other ideas have they provoked in you for improving the Better Selves Fellowship?

If you would like, please share your mailing address with us so that we can thank you with a gift from the farm around the holidays.

Thank you so much.
