Blue Ridge Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training (工艺) cultivates meaningful mentor relationships between aspiring 和 experienced farmers.
We believe that the educational 和 professional development of tomorrow’s growers 和 producers informs the health of our diverse local-food system 和 rural economy.
