Modeling and Teaching Sustainable Agriculture
School for Sustainable Farming
The Tier 1 program starts with Farming 101: Introduction to Farming. After completing this six-week course, graduates wishing to deepen their knowledge of farming techniques and strategies can enroll as Tier 1 (T1) Farming Students. Tier 1 Students are actively learning and practicing farming skills while participating as vital members of the Wild Willow Farm community.
Students who have completed the core Tier 1 curriculum, or who have tested out by proving basic skills can continue advancing their farming skills through a deeper exploration of basic-level instructions offered at the T1 level. The focus of Tier 2 is one-on-one mentorship with our farm staff in the field. Curriculum includes field practicum, coached field work, farm rotations and continuing education classes. |
