International Rural Development
Tillers' mission is to preserve, study, and exchange low-capital technologies that increase the productivity of rural communities. We provide international trainings and consultations on the introduction or maximization of animal power, blacksmithing, woodworking, intensive pasturing and fodder, low-capital technologies, and more. Tillers conducts ground based hands-on trainings in international rural villages, larger population centers, at our Cook's Mill Learning Center in Michigan, and at our new learning center in Chimoio, Mozambique.
