Where We Work
Advances in North American AgricultureSfL at HOME
In the United States and elsewhere in North American agriculture, SfL’s unique work relies on facilitating “uncommon collaborations” of farmers and ranchers recognized for innovation and leadership in their communities and stakeholders drawn from the groups they trust.
Through grassroots leadership from trusted local growers and farm groups, combined with a movement of farmers providing feedback, recommendations crafted on climate smart agriculture and other enabling policies, programs and investments can be designed to truly provide solutions from the land.
