Presentation transcript:

NRDC works to safeguard the earth—its people, its plants and animals, and the natural systems on which all life depends.

We are inspired by a world where all people can benefit from the services of sustainably managed farms. We believe in the intrinsic value of agriculture, not just for its ability to produce but for its ability to connect people to nature and ensure resilient land or future generations. We seek authentic partnerships to help us advocate for innovative policy solutions that regenerate soil, protect waterways, promote an equitable agricultural system and empower farmers to be good stewards of the land.
