This is from our friends over at FarmsReach:
Gain the experience and practical skills needed to start your own farm! Work with other beginning farmers, knowledgeable instructors and successful farm business owners! The California Farm Academy (CFA) is now accepting applications for their 2014 program!
In this week's feature, we spoke with Jennifer Taylor, Director of the CFA, about the upcoming program! Started in 2012 by the Center for Land-Based Learning, the CFA was developed to encompass the practical knowledge that gives beginning farmers a strong foundation to start their own operations. Now in its third year, the CFA continues to offer a life-changing experience for those who are serious about becoming farmers. Read more about the program and our conversation with Jennifer!
The 2014 program begins on February 11th, so if you’re interested in experiential learning, gaining the practical skills it takes to run a farm business, and want to get your hands dirty in the new year, apply today!
