Profile Types​
1. Peer to Peer Agroforestry Profile
Agroforestry Profiles are for farmers and agroforestry practitioners who wish to share their knowledge and more about what they do. This peer-to-peer style profile is based around knowledge sharing. You can also think of it as giving future farmers the general agroforestry advice that you wish you had starting out. These profiles are similar to brief written interviews, with several optional and open ended questions about many aspects of your experience with agroforestry.
In addition to the agroforestry information provided, you may choose to share optional web links and contact information, or whether you are open to being contacted about agroforestry. Please note that these profiles and the agroforestry map are fully public and only profiles who provide an exact address will be mapped.
