Are you concerned about threats to our land and water? Do you feel that more needs to be done to prevent climate change? You are not alone!

Many people are wondering what they can do locally to make the world a better place right now.

Tilth Alliance offers two different sustainability trainings this spring to empower community members to take action to protect the environment – get involved!

Through classroom learning, hands-on practice and field trips, discover the relationship between soil, water and climate — and learn how you can protect these invaluable resources in important ways. After the training, participants volunteer in their communities by creating demonstration projects and teaching practical techniques to others.
