Centner Academy shares a close alignment with Regener8 Farm and Retreat, a 34-acre agriculture and retreat property owned by David and Leila Centner. Located in South Miami only 35 minutes from the school, Regener8 will provide farm-to-cafeteria regeneratively and hydroponically grown nutrition, while weaving in a wide breadth of curricula encompassing science, entrepreneurship, grounding, and family and student getaways. There’s simply nothing like this in America!​
The multi-acre, mixed use farm is one of the most treasured elements at Centner Academy. This peaceful retreat is located nearby to provide additional learning opportunities for our students
Regeneratively Grown
A holistic farming system that, among other benifits, improve water and air quality, enchance biodiversity, produce nutrient-dense food, and store carbon to help our world
Educational Experiences
Weaving our campus best practices in entrepreneurship, grounding techniques, and supporting family & student getaways.
Hydroponically Farmed
Our state-of-the-art facilities follow ecological best practices to ensure the highest quality for all, whilst mitigating the need for unnecessary water.
Regener8 Farm and Retreat is an oasis aligned for our students and community whom seek to connect with nature and contribute to the planet’s overall health.
The goal of Regenera8 farm is to be a source of regeneratively-produced fruits and vegetables and as a platform to promote agriscience in the South Florida.
The farm uses regenerative farming practices, with a focus on healthy soils and bio-diversity leading to more productive yields.
The farm hosts a farmers’ market, hydroponic greenhouse, fruit grove, nursery, cage-free egg production, tropical fruit groves and other agricultural uses.
The retreat is similarly planned as a lushly landscaped and serene relaxation environment where, nestled among the foliage, will be a meditation center, overnight lodging, communal kitchen and dining space, spa/healing center, walking paths, recreational spaces with sport courts and calming natural bodies of water.
