What is Climate Smart Agriculture?
Climate Smart agriculture uses growing practices with the goal of decreasing agriculture’s impact on climate change and making farms more resilient to a changing climate.
How to Support Climate Smart Farming as a Consumer
The best way to support local farms is to vote with our dollars, spending them directly with farms that produce their goods using practices we believe in.
It’s important to acknowledge that doing things the right way is time-consuming and can also be expensive. Our food system wasn’t designed with small-scale, sustainable farmers in mind.
