HHA is made
up of local community members and business people. What we propose is
a public/private partnership with Bernalillo County to fund, operate and
manage the Hubbell House property.
The proposed
"Demonstration Farm and Living History History
Museum" may provide benefit to the community in the following
ways:
- Create
an on-the-job training program for South Valley youth that will provide
job skills
- Provide
public education through the creation of a cultural and agricultural
learning center
- Promote
economic development for small-scale sustainable agriculture
- Foster
responsible stewardship of our environment by advocating organic farming
methods
- Promote
water conservation for agriculture through the use of drip irrigation
systems
- Generate
tourism revenues from the operation of a "Hubbell Farm and Museum"
