Farmer Education and Mentoring

These documents are based on work on California's Central Coast supported by the grant “Building a Foundation for New Farmers: Training, Resources, and Networks,” awarded to the Center in 2012.

• Reflections on Developing and Running a Farmer Education Network
• Personal Reflections from Three Years of Beginning Farmer Instruction and Mentoring

Along with other activities, the grant also supported the revision and expansion of two instructional resources, Teaching Organic Farming & Gardening: Resources for Instructors, and Teaching Direct Marketing & Small Farm Viability: Resources for Instructors.
