Action Teams are the way we are going to move the work of the Coalition forward, both now and into the future after our grant funding is gone. We currently have 6 Coalition action teams. You can learn about what they are and what they are working on here.
Any Coalition member can join an action team, AND meeting attendance as well as outside work counts toward quarterly member stipends too when tracked.

About KC F.A.R.M.E.R.S. Coalition
KC F.A.R.M.E.R.S. (aka Kansas City Farmers and Ranchers for Mentoring, Education, and Resource Sharing) Coalition is a project led by KC Farm School at Gibbs Road and Kansas City Black Urban Growers Inc. (KC BUGs).
