Change the World: Fund organic farming for $40

Posted by Leafy Green on November 28, 2007 2:11 PM Filed Under: Gifts, Shopping

The girls in the photo are argriculture students at The School for Field Studies Center for Sustainable Development Studies in Costa Rica.  Costa Rica is a developing country facing some real struggles in today's global economy.  Large scale industrial agricultural practices are destroying Costa Rica's biodiversity as well as the livlihood of local farmers.

For just $40.00 you can buy seeds for one full semester for the SFS test farm.  You'll help promote organic farming as the school helps provide seeds and training to local farmers and helps them obtain organic certification for their crops.

Leafy Green's Tip of the Day Do you have shelves of dusty books? Why not re-gift them? A good book can be a thoughtful gift, especially if it's one you've enjoyed yourself! Organize a book re-gifting exchange with family and friends. By the time you're ready to re-read 'War and Peace' someone may re-gift it back to you!
