Looking for some easy-to-access, credible information about the importance of ecological farming? The Sustainable Agriculture Education Association (SAEA) launched a website and listserv to help people stay connected with educational resources, including upcoming conferences and new studies. SAEA's mission is to advance sustainable agriculture and agroecology in education. Anyone can become a member. Another useful resource was announced this week, too -- at Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future. The Center launched a website called the Agriculture & Public Health Gateway. Check out the extensive database. It allows you to search for reports, peer-reviewed journal articles, relevant organizations, and more -- all related to the intersection of public health and agriculture. Whether you're a physician or professor, student or scientist, this research tool is an important clearinghouse of information to guide discussions, research, and policymaking. And don't forget about the National Sustainable Agriculture Information Service. This group of professionals constantly develop reports on sustainable agriculture practices and markets, provide up-to-date funding opportunities (especially for farmers), and post news stories and upcoming conferences.

It's true what our moms said...we are what we eat. In fact, it's truer than they thought. What I eat doesn't just affect me anymore, it affects all of us.
Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
