Condor’s Hope is partnering with the Climate Farm School program at Terra.do to offer a week of on-farm experience working with our dry-farmed vineyard and olive orchard, April 15-21, 2023. This course is a unique opportunity for professionals to learn directly from experienced farmers about how agroecology and sustainable food systems operate in the climate solutions landscape and to find the next steps in their professional journeys toward climate action.

The course is four weeks long, with weeks 1, 2, and 4 online and the 3rd week on the farm. Applications are open on the course website.
