Description:
For over 60 years, Heifer International (HI) has helped more than 8 million people all over the world to become self-sufficient through training about husbandry and crop production, and donation of materials and livestock. Long-time HI volunteer Leo Tautfest has visited project sites in several countries, from Tanzania to Zenger Farm in SE Portland. Urban ecology, including production of organic crops and ornamental plants is one aspect of HI’s vision. Join us as Leo illustrates, through slides and a DVD, HI’s wider mission: to “end hunger and poverty and care for the Earth” as well as showing success stories in urban agriculture and the impacts of HI’s work upon the lives of people.
