Healthy soil is critical for healthy, productive crops. This workshop will

concerns, and to build healthier soils for long-term success. Topics will
include cover cropping, farming in clay, and accessing state and federal
resources to confront soil challenges. This event will also feature a farmer
panel discussing soil health strategies for climate resiliency. Join us for an
engaging day of learning and networking!
