The Four Season Farmer Development Program is a 1-2 year program for individuals with experience growing food for market, and an entrepreneurial drive to own their own farm business. This is an opportunity to earn income while you establish your own farm. The program begins this March, and we are looking for farmers to get this program going.
We are hosting a meeting for the 4-season program at 3pm this Saturday, January 22, at the Grange Kitchen and Bar. This will be the first opportunity to share information about our lease arrangement with Ann Arbor Township. We are very excited to be the first project of this 150 acre sustainable farm campus center. For more information, or if you have questions, please contact Jeff: jeff@selmacafe.org
We look forward to seeing you at the Grange on Saturday,
Lisa & Jeff
I’m pumped! See you all then.
WOW! This type of program will fill a real void and sounds like a great opportunity for people ready to make a committed transition.
Darn it! I just today (1-24-11) checked out the Selma Cafe web site, and I see that I missed the exact meeting that I have been dreaming of. I do have farming experience, and I am committed to organic farming, year-around hoop house production, and making my farm my full-time sustainable work. From what I see on the January 2011 archive page, the meeting on 1-22 was where I should have been. I will follow up with an email to Jeff. Thank you Selma/Grange.
