Background

The overarching goal of these meetings is to see other no till farms in action throughout New England, learn from one another by diving deep into specific topics of each host farm, get to know one another with the idea of continuing to meet up to build community, and discuss what successes looks like on your farm and what challenges we are facing on our farms. These meetings are geared toward farmers (primarily owners and managers) who are growing using no till, ecological practices or are actively transitioning to these methods. Let’s take lessons from our fungal friends and network :)
