SARE


Hello everyone,

I was looking for some applications of enviro. anthro. and came across a wonderful site called SARE. It stands for Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education. It's main goal through funding small farms and ranches is to educate people on how healthy and profitable it can be to be sustainable and environmentally friendly. This site reminded me a lot of the work that our Professor Pena does on his farm with the use of mixed crops of vegetation to reduce pests. This site along with the funding it offers has created new markets to these small business owners and farmers who were on the brink of losing it all to large monoculture producing companies. Its wonderful check it out www.sare.org
