Mark your calendars: winter farmer-to-farmer online resilience series

Join UMN Extension and Land Stewardship Project for a series of online forums this winter to address resiliency on our farms.  From the changing climate to the external and internal pressures impacting our farms, our strength lies in coming together collectively to support one another and to provide inspiration for addressing these challenges.   

 

We will be bringing farmers together to collectively increase our resiliency through a series of 4 online forums this winter.  The format will include a video interview with farmers using innovative strategies to improve their farm resilience followed by a live Q&A.  There will also be an opportunity for peer-to-peer dialog.  Please join us!
