Mission
THE BERRY CENTER WAS LAUNCHED TO PRESERVE THE LEGACY OF WENDELL BERRY'S WORK AND WRITINGS AND THE EXCEPTIONAL AGRICULTURAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF HIS FATHER JOHN BERRY, SR., AND HIS BROTHER JOHN BERRY, JR. THE CORE OF OUR WORK IS TO ADVOCATE FOR FARMERS, LAND CONSERVING COMMUNITIES, AND HEALTHY REGIONAL ECONOMIES.OUR WORK SEEKS TO PROVIDE SOLUTIONS TO ESSENTIAL ISSUES THAT ARE RARELY IN PUBLIC DISCLOSURE AND CERTAINLY NOT REFLECTED IN AGRICULTURAL POLICIES. "WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR FARMERS TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO FARM WELL? AND "HOW DO WE BECOME A CULTURE THAT SUPPORTS GOOD FARMING AND LAND USE?" WE BELIEVE THAT THE ANSWERS - WHILE FIRMLY ROOTED IN LOCAL WORK - ARE CENTRAL TO SOLVING SOME OF THE WORLD'S MOST PRESSING PROBLEMS INCLUDING THE DEVASTATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND BIODIVERSITY; RAPID ONSET OF CLIMATE CHANGE; ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL INEQUITIES; AND THE COLLAPSE OF HEALTHY FARMING AND RURAL COMMUNITIES.

THE AGRARIAN CULTURE CENTER AND BOOKSTORE CARRIES ALL OF WENDELL BERRY'S PUBLICATIONS, AND INSPIRATIONS FROM HIS HOME LIBRARY AND OTHER WORKS THAT HAVE INFLUENCED HIS LIFE. THE HOME PLACE MEATS - A LOCAL BEEF INITIATIVE ESTABLISHES A COOPERATIVE FOR LOCAL LIVESTOCK FARMERS TO SELL TO LOCAL MARKETS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
