Grazing and farming occur on these lands and there is an opportunity now to change human behavior and beliefs towards farming and foster the idea of entrepreneurship and reduce the need for farm subsidies. This program takes a multi-disciplinary approach to effect positive change to Planet Earth. This program will include courses from four different disciplines to include Park Management, Biology, Nutrition, and Business.
