·          How can we advance sustainable practices and innovations to the whole of American agriculture?

·          What if you had just five minutes to share your vision with the leaders of the sustainable agriculture community? 

Share your vision for advancing  sustainable agriculture!

SARE is proud to announce its New Voices contest, which will give “New Voices” in agriculture the opportunity to share their ideas with the leaders of the sustainable agriculture community at SARE’s 20th Anniversary New American Farm Conference, to be held March 25-27, 2008 in Kansas City, Missouri.

SARE seeks written, audio, and/or video submissions that articulate emerging perspectives and illustrate an inspirational and pioneering vision for the advancement of sustainable agriculture over the next 20 years. The winning entry will be presented at the closing plenary session of the conference. Top finalists will also be invited to participate in leadership sessions at the conference at SARE’s expense.

We particularly encourage submissions from:

·          farmers or ranchers

·          emerging leaders in the field of advocacy, education or research

·          beginning farmers and ranchers

·          students

·          minorities and other under-represented  audiences
