As an organizational member of NESAWG, the U. Mass Cooperative
Extension Program Agro-ecology Program area should have received a
NESAWG Member Directory. (Check with Stephen Herbert).
In the Directory you'll find a number of NESAWG member
organizations that have developed or are working on sustainable
agriculture-related curricula. These include:
The Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (K-6
curriculum), Contact Nancy Ross (207) 622-3118
Northeast Organic Farming Association - Connecticut Contact
Suzanne Duesing through Kim Stoner (203) 789 7246
Politics of Food Contact Alison Clarke (716) 244 2711
University of Vermont Center for Sustainable Agriculture Contact
Kate Duesterberg (802) 656 0037
Two other women who have done a lot of work with elementary
education, agriculture and composting in particular, are:
Rima Nickell, now at the Center for Sustainable Living, Winston
College (717) 264 4141, and
Ellen Kirby, Brooklyn Botanical Garden/Brooklyn GreenBridge (718)
622 4433 ext. 202
Good luck! I would be interested in the results of your search and
in the curriculum you develop. Please give me a call if I can be
of further help.
