OUR SPONSORS

Youth Empowerment

The future starts with our youth. Ratcliff CBO is committed to providing the education, support, access and resources young people need to usher in a stronger, more responsible, and more resilient era for American agriculture.

Sustainable Farming Practices

Balancing the interests of today and the needs of tomorrow is paramount. By fostering a culture of responsibility, we’re helping to support food security for future generations.

Nutrient-Rich Food Production

It’s not enough just to increase total agricultural production. The choices we make have a profound influence on the nutritional value of those products. Ratcliff CBO provides education for agricultural producers on creating high-quality, nutrient-dense food.

Environmental Conservation

The land provides us all, and it’s our responsibility to care for the land in return. Ratcliff CBO is intimately involved with a variety of educational, charitable, and advocacy programs to help protect and promote the resilience and health of our environment.
