What We Are
We are a recently established organization at California State University, Fresno. The purposes of this organization are to learn about and promote resposible agriculture both on campus and within our community. We plan to do this by providing students with opportunities to further their education to alternative practices by meeting with and learning from practicing sustainable agronomists, interacting with the faculty and administration of the University in the area of sustainable agriculture, and by inviting our local community to join us as we learn about, discuss, and apply environmentally conscious practices of sustainable agriculture.

Who We Are
The members are a diverse group from all over California, the United States, and the world. Our membership includes both undergraduate and graduate students of Ecology, Plant Science, Plant Health, Horticulture, Viticulture, and Ecology, and we are still growing. Three faculty members, including a Soil Scientist, a Plant Pathologist , and an Entomologist also participate. We also invite non-student members from the agriculture industry and all other fields to join us. Bi-monthly meetings are held on the Fresno State Campus.

How-The Plan
•Guest leturers will speak each month on various topics pertaining to agriculture and alternative agriculture.
•We hope to establish a course in sustainable agriculture at California State University, Fresno in the College of Agricultural Sciences.
•We are currently developing a small, approximately one-acre plot, to be used as a continuing organic garden and research project. This is being done on campus with the goal of offering both an educational outreach program for the children and adults of our community, and also offering educational "Tailgate Sessions" for farmers and growers in the San Joaquin Valley.

SERA encourages all with an interest in environmentally resposible agriculture to show your support by joining us in our club. We hope you participate by attending meetings, and helping us establish the garden. Notifications of meeting and meeting notes will be made available by email. Students for Environmentally Responsible Agriculture is dedicated to Agricultural Excellence.
