Sustainability Movement Goes Global

We toured the amazing Joska campus - complete with gardens, fish ponds, chickens and other life stock (see previous posts, I would identify these animals for you, but I would likely not accurately portray the ‘farm’ of animals we encountered!). 


The thought, skills, focus on sustainability in their farming practices and operational intent on growing their resources is fantastic! 


The more food you can produce on site the lower your grocery bill. At the same time, they are providing the students with a thriving learning environment and life skills training.


One of the latest endeavors is “Hope Springs” a water purification center developing a new, clean water supply to provide fresh bottled water and ability to sell the water as new revenue stream to support the school. Very entrepreneurial!
