Proposal abstract:
The purpose of this project is to explore and implement a plan to make a multi-generational family farm utilize Sustainable Agriculture to increase profitability while providing a recreational and educational option for communities, schools and individuals. The goal would also involve bridging the gap between agri-urban youth and providing an awareness of environmental/ecological issues that affect us all and can be improved through sustainable agricultural techniques and through education of the public.
