This one-year micro-certificate provides a practical foundation in sustainable small farm agriculture through the hands-on design, planning, and operation of agriculture systems relevant to small farm environments. An on-farm production emphasis at the SAgE Student Farm (Skagit Valley) trains students in sustainable small farm site planning and crop propagation, production, cultivation, harvesting, and postharvest management. This certificate is offered in partnership with Viva Farms, a farm incubator organization. Upon successful completion of this certificate, students qualify to establish an independent sustainable small farm enterprise located at, and with developmental support from, Viva Farms.
