Notes
Trent’s forward-thinking Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems (SAFS) program helps to meet the growing demand for experts to address the global need for healthy, affordable, and sustainable food production. As a student in this program, you will develop a firm understanding of food systems: How food is produced, distributed, and consumed, locally and around the world. Through either the B.A. or B.Sc. pathways, you’ll have opportunities to get hands-on in sustainable farming and ethical practices, particularly in the Trent Experimental Farm, while learning how to influence a future of food systems that are responsible, justice-oriented, efficient, effective, and viable. Dig deeper into sustainable, regenerative farming practices through real-world experiences in farming, marketing, distribution, and food preparation. In this specialization, you’ll earn more than 240 hours of hands-on farming experience through an intensive field course.
