New agrarian superheroes in the making, HMI has teamed up with Quivira Coalition’s New Agrarian Program to provide Holistic Management® training to apprentices, mentees, interns and new farmers and ranchers dedicated to making this world a better and greener place!
We don’t mean to brag, but this squad is pretty exclusive. We’re limiting the participants to a diverse group of beginners who have their hands in the ground and are from all over the world and different climates. We also have limited spots so we can give you lots of TLC and so you can network and learn from each other too. In other words, don’t wait too long to register!
This series can be taken online from anywhere with internet – from your favorite coffee shop to your own comfy couch. We’ve got live instruction and helpful feedback on course assignments so it’s a virtual, interactive course just for you! Additional awesome videos enhance learning and recorded webinars allow for later viewing or reviewing (so whatever your schedule is, it works).
