BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE

National Sustainable Agricultural Coalition (NSAC), based in Washington, D. C., was created out of two successful grassroots organizations, the Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (SAC) and the National Campaign for Sustainable Agriculture (NCSA). The National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC) is a national alliance of farm, rural development, and conservation groups that organized in 1988 to affect federal agriculture policy. NSAC's vision of agriculture is one where a safe, nutritious, ample, and affordable food supply is produced by a legion of family farmers who make a decent living pursuing their trade, while protecting the environment, and contributing to the strength and stability of their communities.
