I am a charter member of the Western States Technical Panel to evaluate sustainable agriculture. I have worked with farm groups, land-grant universities and the USDA SARE program since the beginning. A registered HRM educator with the Center for Holistic Resource Management, I have been teaching for ten years. I teach HRM courses all over the western half of the United States. I have worked with producers from the Midwest who are managing farms with less than 300 acres and ranchers having in excess of 10,000 acres.
Personal expertise is in grass management, however.
I grew up on a farm in south-central Nebraska and understand the problems of monocropping practices. I help people develop long-term goals and then choose actions that are socially, economically and ecologically sound. I provide a natural, balanced approach to resource management. I currently don't have a farm or research site. I offer marketing services and consulting in herbs and vegetables.
