Teaching Organic Farming & Gardening: Resources for Instructors was first produced in 2003 in response to the many requests from those interested in the curriculum offered each year by the Apprenticeship in Ecological Horticulture (see page vi) through the Center for Agroecology & Sustainable Food Systems (CASFS, the Center) at the University of California, Santa Cruz. A second edition with updated information and resources followed in 2005.
This book is for those who want to cultivate and promote healthy and organic foods.
