Hugh Bennett field, named in honor of Dr. Bennett from the dust bowl era is clear environmentally and ready to plow for French Intensive / Grid beds. The Funes Agroeclogical Trail named in honor of Dr. Fernando Funes of Cuba, the father of the organic movement there that inspires us all, has been cleared and prepped for diversified agroforestry and specialty crops projects in various growing circumstances along the trail.
All were made possible by Kodak, National Geographic Society, Conservation Fund, Duke, NCCU, 100 Black Men and Burt's Bees. The projects and funding were only possible through the generosity of Dr. & Mrs. William Chambers.
