Advancing GSA’s Mission.
There are numerous compelling and challenging issues impacting farmers and farming in our region. Because agriculture is such a big part of life on the Central Coast and an economic driver, we understand that what impacts us, impacts the community.
GSA leadership focuses on helping farmers and farming companies address current challenges, identify emerging concerns and find solutions. Many of these challenges are unique to agriculture requiring a novel approach that will allow farmers to continue to farm, protect the livelihoods of employees and enhance the quality of life in our region.
