The experience I gained from working with RFI has changed my view of agriculture and environmental matters. I am extremely excited to continue working with RFI to help inspire other students, as well as help local farmers and community members to create a more sustainable future. Not only does RFI give hands on field work opportunities, but life changing experiences that you carry forever!
