Additional information:
In this deep dive workshop, commercial farmer participants will co-create with peers and technical advisors strategies to plan for climate resilience using your farm maps. We will discuss farm resilience planning using climate risk assessments, and prioritization tools to help choose from a suite of adaptation and mitigation practices. Using maps, farmers will identify areas of success and where problems exist on the farm. Together, the group will workshop holistic practices for a future that will include saturated soils, significant water events, droughts, and other impacts from a changing climate. Learn about the technical assistance and funding opportunities available to help you increase your farm, business, and community resilience. If you have one, please bring a map of your property or note on your registration your address and that you would like us to bring one. Leave with ideas and resources to take action and increase soil and ecosystem health by working with your soil type, texture, and topography.
