Our Educational courses and training programs offer:
Experienced Staff/Instructors-
All instructors have been farming for 10+ years, most have their own farms, and some have long family histories with farming and the trades.
Many of our instructors have formal training in the education field.
Hands on experience-
All programs combine academic and hands on training to different degrees.
Through experiential education activities we teach how to be comfortable and proficient
Guided Manuals and Educational Tools-
Our programs often come with deep manuals culminating the wisdom of our own training and studies with our own additional work for reference .
Intern staff help to build the manuals each year making them more comprehensive and broad in scope.
Techniques, methods, and Skills-
It's not enough to learn the nomenclature and principles of agriculture and agroforestry,
We teach innovative systems based faring, but our every day applications are what count- you'll learn how to maximize your efficiency on the farm through invaluable sets of skills learned by doing.
Real Farm Settings-
All of our farms are developing and working agroforestry farms.
Many of our farms are at early stages of development and offer unique opportunites for participants to watch them change.
