Institute for Rural Innovation and Stewardship

Program Description
The Institute for Rural Innovation and Stewardship at Wenatchee Valley College takes a lead role in providing educational programming, research, and development of resources to revitalize our region’s family-based farms and agricultural economies. It is our goal to serve as a vehicle for gathering information and creating access to tools that farmers, other businesspeople, and rural communities can use to make informed decisions and positively affect their future. IRIS provides dynamic education programs for all levels of business, from analyzing alternative strategies to basic computer training for employees. IRIS’s partnerships and Wenatchee Valley College’s community, in concert with modern technology, work together to develop education programs that are timely, responsive, and accessible.
