Sustainable Agriculture Tool Lending Library
The Sustainable Agriculture Tool Lending Library is a partnership between the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE), organization 2, organization 3, and organization 4 that lends out farming equipment in an effort to diffuse the costs of effective but expensive equipment. Our goal is to advance sustainable agriculture, community food systems, and economic progress for smaller operators and young farmers.
Fees
We collect a yearly $125 membership fees that go towards future tool buying, insurance, and maintenance of the tools.
- Membership fee: $125 annual membership fee
- Cleaning fee: $25 cleaning fee IF, say, you return a tiller tangled up in weeds.
- Late fee: $25 per day
- Damage fee: depending on the equipment
Administration
Different organizations, including farmers, are assigned to different positions, to help the group run smoothly and sustain itself long-term.
