Good topic, Peggy. I'd just spoken of it to someone at the Farmer's Market
and I said the only program I knew of was the Agro-ecology program at UCSC
(not a regular part of a degree) but they felt many more were in
place--couldn't name any places tho. So, I'd love to hear what universities
(many were land-grant colleges once) and colleges do offer courses and
programs for *small scale and organic farmers*. The college I taught at,
Hartnell College in Salinas CA, a huge ag center, certainly did not.
