Massachusetts program turns refugees into farmers

Refugee Farmer Program in Mass

Refugee farmer in Massachussets farmer incubator program

This program in Massachusetts has been around for a while now training immigrants and refugees in modern farming techniques.  It’s kind of a small farmer incubator program.  You may remember a while back I wrote about the looming crisis of a farmer shortage in this country.  Here is a program that is training small scale farmers to grow in their own communities.  I hope to see this kind of thing in Portland soon.
