As UCCE finishes up its three year USDA grant with this year's training, we're pulling out all the stops to spread the word.  Applications for the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program are due April 15! We've been grateful for the publicity received this year through local radio:

  • KRCB –North Bay Report Danielle Venton interviewed graduate Vince Trotter and Linda Peterson.  This short piece is a quick way to learn about the program.
  • KSVY –March 7 podcast with local farmer/radio host, Andrea Davis Cetina. The podcast provides an in-depth look at the program.
  • KBBF interview on “Women's Voices” – Amy Contardi interviewed Linda Peterson, Program Coordinator, and Fabiola Espinosa – Latino Service Providers/partner.

We were fortunate to have funding through our USDA grant to produce a video to help promote the program with Santa Rosa Junior College
