Veterans Sustainable Agriculture Training - Class 6/13 - 7/22

Our new class has gathered and the journey begins for 12 new students to find their way into Sustainable Organic Agriculture.  We are excited to be a part of the journey.

First Speaker today is Eric Larson, from the San Diego Farm Bureau  who will explain the many benefits of being a member of the Farm Bureau.  They are very active and really support farmers.

Second speaker, Mike Hanes who graduated in February, will share his powerpoint and business plan with this class to give them the example of his completion.   Also Mike's hot sauce DANG!!! has made it to New York where it was given to Sam Kass the White House Chef!  And to the Food Editor Cia at Fast Company magazine.

Mike's hot sauce hopefully will be in Whole Foods this summer.

we'll keep you posted on his success and the class progression.
