Allison Jack (Cornell), Amber Anderson Mba (Iowa Farmer's Union), and Rebekah Ritson (Iowa State University) will be representing the SAEA at the Midwest Organic and Sustainable Education Service (MOSES) meeting in La Crosse, WI February 25-27, 2010. This will be a great way to learn about the SAEA's unique approach to structuring conferences.

The Sustainable Agriculture Education Materials (SAEM) database has been updated with new curriculum and course information from around the country. A great resource anyone working in sustainable agriculture education!

The SAEA thanks the 2009 conference organizers, participants, and sponsors for creating a successful 3rd National Conference on Sustainable Agriculture Education.

Sustainable agriculture education and the SAEA were recently featured in Inside Higher Ed.

New committee formed to support the continued development of the Sustainable Agriculture Education Materials library. Learn more about getting involved in this great opportunity!

The SAEA is a Real Food Challenge Partner! Learn more, including how to participate in the upcoming Regional Student Summits.

Promoting the teaching and learning of sustainable agriculture

The SAEA champions innovative educational approaches for sustainable agriculture through the development, application, and research of teaching and learning practices.

Our primary activity has been hosting participatory conferences. These gatherings provide a unique opportunity for our members to exchange ideas through in-depth discussions.

The SAEA is driven by volunteers who firmly believe in sustainable agriculture – for now and into the future. We invite you to join us!
