Our Mission:

Our not-for-profit mission is to provide inclusionary and inspiring learning opportunities through research, innovation, hands-on education and farm garden tours.  Our farm garden tours showcase ecological stewardship, wildlife conservation & habitat restoration, honey bee wellness & wild pollinator gardens, sustainability, regenerative ‘beyond’ organic gardening, bio-diverse farming practices and local food security.

Our Vision:

Elk Root is teaming with consultant biologists, agrologists, engineers and landowners to conserve, protect and restore the productivity and biodiversity of ALR lands and its wildlife inhabitants, including identified species-at-risk.
