NWIAA New York Chapter Leaders

As a college professor and garden coach, I affirm that agriculture and gardening belongs to every woman, transcending age, race, sexual orientation, ability, gender, religion, and status. I view these diverse identity markers as fertile ground for innovation within agriculture and gardening.
My teaching, research, service, and urban farming management experience reflect a deep commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) frameworks in agriculture and gardening through digital products such as webinars, courses, books, blogs, mobile apps, and service-learning projects with college students.
New York State Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA)
NYSERDA has three very important agriculture energy efficiency programs. Flyers for AEAP & RTAP as well.
-
Agriculture Energy Audit Program (AEAP): This program offers NY state farmers no-cost energy audits to help identify energy efficiency opportunities on their farm.
-
REAP Technical Assistance Program (RTAP): This program has been designed to assist farmers at no-cost to make applications to the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP). If awarded, farmers can receive up to 50% of the total project cost.
-
Energy Best Practices for Agriculture: The best practices have been developed to help educate producers about energy efficient technologies, how they function, the average cost, as well as an average payback in years.
We'd love to hear from you!
