Mission RCD is a partner with California State University Northridge’s Institute of Sustainability and the Center for Faith and Food Justice on MESA’s (Multinational Exchange for Sustainable Agriculture) USDA funded Agroecology, Farming and Food Pathways training program.  This training program consists of a virtual course, hands-on farm training, local farm visits, and connecting and building community with other emerging farmers.  Successful completion of the courses provides an opportunity for the Fellowship with 1:1 mentorship, grant writing and business plan training and access to many other agricultural resources.
