Sustainable Agriculture Education (SAGE) supports urban-edge farming and engages diverse populations in local, sustainable agriculture.
Founded in 2001, SAGE is an entrepreneurial nonprofit that seeks to ensure that multifunctional agriculture – agriculture that provides food and other community benefits – is a key element of regional sustainability planning and that it is implemented on the ground in the San Francisco Bay Area and other regions.
SAGE produces foodshed assessments, participates in regional agricultural planning and investment initiatives, creates urban-edge Agricultural Parks including the model Sunol AgPark, and provides sustainable agriculture education and outreach.
