No More Normal: A Dairy Farmer Roundtable Discussion on Climate Adaptation

February 27 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm

Let’s face it– there is no more ‘normal’ growing season anymore. The first and last frosts are erratic, and precipitation is all over the place– heavy rains one summer and droughts the next. Join American Farmland Trust’s New England Climate and Agriculture team and Steve Barstow for a dairy farmer-to-farmer discussion of strategies and ideas for building resilience on our farmlands. Steve will kick off the conversation with some of his observations and approaches to producing feed under variable weather conditions, and the role that soil health plays in managing for dairy farm resilience.

*This event is open to farmers only*.

Lunch will be provided. Please register by Feb 21st to ensure there is enough food for all!

RSVP or inquire with Julie Fine, jfine@farmland.org, 413-531-0425
