Hi sanet,
I am a member of an interdisciplinary resource team within USDA Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) that works with developing and
transferring technology for solutions to regional natural resource
problems in the Mid-Atlantic states. My duties include providing
sustainable agriculture training to our field staff. I am coordinating a two
day workshop with the potential dates of Oct. 20-21, 1997 to be held in
Trenton NJ for NRCS field staff. I would like to have the second day of
the workshop be tours of farms that are implementing sustainable
agriculture techniques. I am putting out a request to any farmers in New
Jersey that would be open to hosting a tour. It would consist of 40
participants, on one bus probably. I look forward to the responses.
