Sustainable Agriculture summer semester
Sustainable Agriculture summer semester
Sterling College in Craftsbury Common, Vermont, is currently accepting applications for the 2007 Sustainable Agriculture Semester scheduled for June 10, 2007 to August 17, 2007. Application deadline is April 16th.
The Sterling College Sustainable Agriculture Semester immerses students in the daily rhythms and realities of farming. This 6-8 credit integrated program of work and study explores ecological management of plants, animals, and land. Classroom instruction, hands-on training, and work on the farm are combined to teach sustainable practices and to foster discussion about agricultural issues. Our farm includes certified organic vegetable gardens, a greenhouse, a movable hoophouse, a small orchard, solar and wind powered barns, and a variety of livestock including sheep, goats, pigs, cattle, poultry, and draft horses. We implement a mixed-power model, using both tractors and draft animals in our gardens, pastures, and forests.
College students, academically advanced high school and homeschooled students, and adult learners are eligible to apply. Enrollment is limited to twelve. Application deadline is April 16, 2007. For more information go to
