SAIG was established in the fall of 1988 by a group of students of various disciplines drawn together by their common pursuit of a more sustainable agriculture. The organization is recognized by the University and the student government. In addition to biweekly meetings, SAIG members discuss and investigate various topics that relate to sustainable agriculture, sponsor off campus speakers, attend conferences, and organize field trips.
