Travelogue: Adventures in Siem Reap, Cambodia, while serving on a USAID Farmer-2-Farmer Volunteer Assignment
Academic Director of the Santa Fe Community College’s Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) program, Charlie Shultz, recently completed a 2-week Farmer-2-Farmer volunteer assignment in Siem Reap, Cambodia. The work was funded by the NGO, USAID. The assignment included delivering an intensive hydroponics workshop for agriculture extension agents and University students. A simplified hydroponics manual was also created for high school teachers to use with students with the goal of increasing interest in agriculture and other STEM related fields. Charlie’s talk will discuss his work with rural Cambodian farmers and will highlight the wonders of Siem Reap and Angkor Wat.
