Hello All,

We are trying to identify of communities that are taking a "big 
picture" approach to creating a sustainable future.  This is where we 
need your help.  

Are there communities you know of anywhere in the U.S. that are
currently approaching sustainable rural community development by
integrating programs like microenterprise development, beginning farmer,
sustainable agriculture, school/community interaction, leadership 
training, lending programs, land link type programs, etc. all at the 
same time?

We are looking for success stories of where this is happening.  We
appreciate your thoughts on this. Kim
