Aunque Contreras tiene recuerdos de infancia de su familia criando cerdos y alfalfa, se alej\u00f3 de sus ra\u00edces agr\u00edcolas durante varios a\u00f1os para apoyar a la comunidad como bombero forestal y pescador comercial de cangrejos. Pero la tierra volvi\u00f3 a llamarle y, en 2023, Contreras se matricul\u00f3 en la <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organicfarmschool.org\/core-program\">Granja Escuela Org\u00e1nica<\/a> (OFS) para a\u00f1adir nuevos conocimientos a los que ya ten\u00eda y sentirse bien asentado antes de gestionar su propia explotaci\u00f3n org\u00e1nica.<\/p>\n<p>Con un <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ccof.org\/es\/foundation\/grants-education\/students-future-organic-farmers\/\">Futuros agricultores org\u00e1nicos<\/a> subvenci\u00f3n del <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ccof.org\/es\/foundation\/\">Fundaci\u00f3n CCOF<\/a>Contreras est\u00e1 ampliando su conocimiento pr\u00e1ctico de las pr\u00e1cticas agr\u00edcolas con una educaci\u00f3n formal adicional. \"Aunque crec\u00ed en una comunidad agr\u00edcola, hasta ahora no hab\u00eda recibido ninguna educaci\u00f3n formal en este campo. Eso es lo que me llev\u00f3 a inscribirme en este programa. Quiero aprender la ciencia de la agricultura org\u00e1nica regenerativa, la biolog\u00eda del suelo y de las plantas, y la fertilidad del suelo. Necesito comprender los consejos y las mejores pr\u00e1cticas para poner en marcha y dirigir una empresa agr\u00edcola. Los conocimientos y la experiencia que estoy adquiriendo en la OFS me ayudar\u00e1n a pivotar y ser adaptable y me dar\u00e1n un paso adelante para estar en la cima en la gesti\u00f3n de mi propia granja org\u00e1nica.\" La visi\u00f3n de Contreras incluye verduras, pollos, cerdos, un huerto y bayas; en el futuro tambi\u00e9n le gustar\u00eda producir bienes de valor a\u00f1adido, como comidas deshidratadas para mochileros.
