SANTA CRUZ, Calif. – A new book published by the UCSC Library’s Regional History Project offers a sparkling window into the 40-year history of how UC Santa Cruz--and California’s Central Coast—became leaders in the organic farming and sustainable agriculture movement.
The 340-page paperback anthology is a collection of 29 stories drawn from a larger archive of oral histories collected by the Regional History Project in 2010.
It documents a dynamic community of farmers, researchers, activists, and educators, who speak for themselves about the transformative movement that emerged in the late 1960’s on the California coast.
