Living on the Land

Stewardship for Small Acreages

Living on the Land is one of the most comprehensive and adaptable curricula in the country for training natural resource professionals to, in turn, teach small-acreage landowners how to care for their soil, air and water while maximizing the land’s value. It is being adopted across the United States.

Living on the Land is available in its entirety through the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension.

You'll find up-to-date copies of the Living on the Land curriculum along with lists of Web resources, training materials and presentations provided by other instructors, a photo gallery, and more.
