New Mexico Community Capital proposes version 3.0 of the Native Farmer in Residence program that has directly invested $110,000 in Native-owned farms and will increase expertise in Native communities to adapt agriculture practices for drought, fire-induced soil erosion, and other threats posed by climate change. The members of the Farmer Steering Committee will each share their knowledge with at least 10 other Native farmers through their community engagement activities.
