Join us on October 5th, for a free community event focused on creating a shared vision for the future of San Cristobal. This event is for anyone who lives in San Cristobal who cares about the future of the valley, the acequia, the agricultural lands, traditions and people.  If you are a farmer, rancher, land owner, parciante, or just live in San Cristobal and care about our future, come join us!

Owen Hablutzel, a land management consultant, facilitator and Certified Holistic Management Educator out of Ensenada in Rio Arriba County, will facilitate the workshop.  He will help the community develop a vision for the future of San Cristobal’s agricultural community that brings together our traditional agricultural practices and regenerative agricultural practices, helps our elders to keep their land in production, and helps our young people be successful in their agricultural efforts,  brings more land in the valley into production, and helps us build a shared set of goals and a shared decision making process.  He will use a framework developed by Holistic Management International and used on ranches, farms, and in communities all over the world to guide decisions around land and water stewardship, quality of life, financial health, and agricultural practices and traditions. 

All San Cristobal Residents are welcome! Lunch will be provided!

Along with Owen, we will have representatives from local agricultural organizations on hand to help think about resources and opportunities.
