Teach with the Groundswell Center!      
Hello Farmers, friends, educators and lovers food and farming! We are requesting proposals for 2017 programming. In the past, our most successful programs have been inspired and either taught or organized by farmers or land workers themselves.  We believe the passion from you about a topic you know well and care about leads to the most engaging and worthwhile programs for others.  So we are putting a call out to you requesting proposals for classes, workshops, events etc. that you would like to coordinate and/or teach.

Please be sure you read our web site full to understand the RFP process and negotiations; http://groundswellcenter.org/2017-request-for-proposals/ 

Submission of this RFP does not guarantee your proposal will be selected, nor that the course topic you suggest will be offered.  Please contact Elizabeth Gabriel if you have specific questions regarding RFP's or need assistance filling out the form.

Please tell us why you are interested in teaching this topic: *
Have you identified a location or site for your proposed offering? *
Groundswell programs typically are held in the Finger Lakes region. They are most effective and enjoyable when they are hands-on and interactive and are often held at farms or on site, but can be inside. We can help you find a suitable location if you don't have one. Plus, Groundswell spaces that are available for your course would include either office space in Ithaca that can hold 15 people and in warmer months, our Incubator Farm and Classroom is available just outside Ithaca.
Here at Groundswell, we are working toward creating a more equitable food system. Will you incorporate food justice into the proposed session/s? *
If you click "yes" In the "Other" section, please indicate How.
