SAEA is an association of faculty, staff, students, administrators, and practitioners dedicated to post-secondary sustainable agriculture education. We also are excited to announce an SAEA conference, July 11-14, 2007, at Cornell University. The SAEA and the upcoming conference are outcomes of Facilitating Sustainable Agriculture: A Participatory National Conference on Post-Secondary Education, held in Pacific Grove, Calif., in Jan. 2006. You may view conference information on the UC Davis Student Farm website (http://studentfarm.ucdavis.edu/FSA/Default.htm) or the UC Santa Cruz Center for Agroecology & Sustainable Food Systems website (http://zzyx.ucsc.edu/casfs/education/conference/index. html). The goal of the 2006 conference was to encourage the continued development of educational programs in sustainable agriculture and agroecology through facilitating a dialogue on learning and teaching at the post-secondary level. During the conference, many participants expressed interest in creating an organization dedicated to promoting sustainable agriculture education. Following on the interest expressed at the conference we conducted a survey of conference participants, committee members, and colleagues, and found overwhelming support for an organization such as SAEA, and a second conference. A report of the survey results is attached. An initial steering committee has identified the SAEA mission as promoting and supporting the development, application, research, and dissemination of best teaching and learning practices in post-secondary sustainable agriculture education and curricula through communication, training, development, and collaborative activities for teachers and learners. Subcommittees are working on developing the organizational structure and determining potential funding sources. The 2007 conference is being organized by a separate steering committee of students, faculty and administrators from Cornell University, Pennsylvania State University, UC Davis, Mercyhurst College, Delaware Valley College and the Rodale Institute. As one of our colleagues in sustainable agriculture education, we invite your participation, both in the continuing formation of the SAEA and in the upcoming conference. If you would like to help develop the new organization, please contact the outreach subcommittee chair, Katie Monsen (kmonsen@ucsc.edu). For conference details, please contact Kathi Colen Peck (kscp@turbonet.com), conference staff.
