Projects, perennials, soils and searches
See our slate of new projects and the search for a new director. You'll also learn about a new team devoted to getting more perennials on the land and read Distinguished Fellow Fred Kirschenmann's tribute to the foundation of every farm's success, its soil. Director DeWitt outlines how the Leopold Center has adapted to the economic downturn, and you'll hear from a student in Aldo Leopold's last class 61 years ago.
Other features: Comments from a successful local foods workshop, how a community of practice became a real community for a small meat processing plant, new on-line features on the Leopold Center Web site, how Agriculture of the Middle could restore choice in the marketplace, the Center's newest annual report.
