Why do you wish to be a SARE Fellow? Be sure to describe how the SARE Fellows Program will enhance your short-term and long-term professional development goals. *

Briefly list or describe some of your experiences and past activities that demonstrate your understanding and interest in sustainable agriculture strategies. *

(Optional) Provide a description of how your work serves, centers leadership by, or otherwise engages historically underserved farmers and ranchers.

USDA defines historically underserved audiences to include socially-disadvantaged producers, limited resource producers, beginning farmers/ranchers, and veterans. They further define socially-disadvantaged farmers and ranchers belonging to the following groups: American Indians or Alaskan Natives, Asians, Blacks or African Americans, Native Hawaiians or other Pacific Islanders, Hispanics, and women.

Applicants who advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) may be elevated by reviewers in the final ranking.

Describe the potential impacts and expected results your participation in the SARE Fellows program could have on your local sustainable agriculture program including potential benefits to other agricultural professionals and clientele in your geographic area.

Applications will not be considered until a letter of support from your immediate supervisor (whoever approves your travel and leave), and two letters of reference have been received. The supervisor may also serve as a reference, in which case their permission may be included in the same letter. If you are responsible for managing your own time without supervision, you may send a note stating that instead.

Have your letters been sent to assoc_dir@sare.org

Yes

Please provide a short bio (~100-150 words) describing your experience and interest in sustainable agriculture and how participating in the SARE Fellows Program may enhance your ability to serve others in your professional outreach programs. Text may be reused from questions above. Bios of selected Fellows will be featured on the program website (see examples) and will not be used as review criteria. *

A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided.
