What if we added an agriculture/self sustainability class and area? We have one at my collage; a nice green house and a couple garden plots, a chicken coop, a couple milk goats and two pigs (that eat all the left over food from the cafeteria)
They teach how to do some basic farming and gardening, even if you have limited space as well as ways to recycle (old bottles and boxes for planters and etc) and other things like making your own compost, reducing waste, collecting rain water, natural pest control, what plants do well together and how to mimic different climates to help them grow better as well as how to raise and reap the benefits of smaller farm animals, such as free range eggs and goat's milk.
It's a really neat and fun class, so I was wondering what you guys thought about doing it for BRRA.

“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you.”
