SFHC holds first General Assembly
In December, SFHC hosted a meeting with the SFHC Trustees and General Assembly. The SFHC Trustees are farmers who have experience using agroecological methods and serve for 3 years. They oversee the work of SFHC staff, while the 100+ General Assembly gives input into the overall direction of the work of SFHC. At the end of the meeting the group had a tour of the SFHC Farmer Research & Training Centre and demonstration farm and were encouraged to use it as a community resource.
Wow! So cool to see participatory government being put together! This is an exciting model for the transition to come.
