Developing Curricula for Organic Farming Courses

To reflect changing external pressures on organic farmers due to erratic and extreme weather patterns, Organic Alberta is seeing a need to shift our extension work from encouraging farmers to adopt best management practices to creating a strong foundation in systems-based problem solving. Our intern will be creating innovative course structures to provide Albertan farmers with foundational knowledge in science-based systems thinking approaches to solving complex on-farm challenges.
