Land-based Leaders

Land-Based Leaders is an alumni network for anyone who has completed the SLEWS and/or the FARMS Leadership Program. ”

Our “graduates” have asked us to set up this group so they can continue to build their educational, professional, and personal network with people who share the interests and/or connections to the Center for Land Based Learning.

By joining, our “graduates” continue to build an appreciation for the role of community in their lives. The FARMS or SLEWS “community” allows its members to enjoy the support of peers and professionals and share connections with the programs and the difference they make in the lives of students.

Letter to Our Alumni

Greetings wherever you are! We hope you are doing well in your work and that the knowledge you learned about leadership and stewardship of the land are serving you well.

The FARMS Leadership Program and SLEWS Program have joined together under one umbrella organization, the Center for Land-Based Learning. We now have an alumni base of over 2,000 participants!

With so many alumni, we would like to give you the opportunity to be part of our alumni association, Land-Based Leaders. When you become part of the alumni association, you join a community of people with the same interests. You will be able to tap other's knowledge, contacts, experiences and resources. You can reunite at alumni gatherings, and keep tabs on our growth and development.

We have heard from many of you, and we know that alumni are doing great things and making a difference in communities – wherever you are. We look forward to hearing your story and getting connected.
