Lighthouse Farm Academy
Collaborative project
The mission of education within the Farming Systems Ecology (FSE) of Wageningen University & Research is to, "equip our students and other actors in the food system with the keys to unlock, redesign, and transition farming systems by experiencing, analyzing, and learning from outstanding examples of farms and foodscapes around the world".In its current capacity, FSE works towards these objectives through the education of students that strive to radically redesign the food system.
