Clarence is one of the founders of Improving Perennial Plants for Food and Bioenergy, Inc (IPPFBE). He currently serves on the Board of Directors and is the Secretary/Treasurer. Clarence’s interest in trees and other perennial plants began in his childhood. He grew up working of the family’s farm located in the foothills east of US Highway 91 between Richmond and Smithfield, Utah. Alfalfa was the primary crop produced by the farm and was used to feed a herd of milk cows and the other livestock raised on the farm. The farm provided many acres of native grassland and there were abundant trees growing on Spring Hill and in the hollows that drained the snowmelt from the surrounding mountains each spring.
