Testimonials:

Before this course, I was just curious about food systems for my job. Now, I'm passionate about them on a whole new level. This program went way beyond professional development -- it was transformational. The week on the farm was the main highlight. We weren't just learning about national policies and soil health – we were getting our hands dirty supporting the work. Hearing directly from inspiring small-scale farmers and entrepreneurs made the whole experience incredibly impactful. Tasting fresh cheese and raw milk while diving into the dairy industry? That was unforgettable. What really solidified the learning was how the on-farm experience built on the strong classroom content. It all clicked into place during that week, and the sense of community we built was amazing. If you want to be more informed about food systems, regenerative agriculture, and climate action, this is the course for you. It'll give you the knowledge and inspiration to make a real difference – no matter if it's personal or professional.
