Agriculture and Natural Resources
Known for its abundance of organic farms, artisan food producers, niche livestock, farm-to-table cuisine, great soil and excellent climate, Sonoma County is one of California’s most desirable agricultural regions. The Agriculture Core at SRJC reflects this rich farming environment.
SRJC’s Agriculture programs center around Shone Farm a 365-acre living classroom with crops, orchards and pastures for livestock. Here, we teach plant science, sustainable agriculture, and animal health and nutrition, all with an eye toward the business of farming. Whether you’re a former 4H kid or a career-changer looking to escape the suburban office park, the Agriculture Core can help you cultivate a career in one of the best possible places to pursue it.
