There will be a pre-webinar for each field day. Information,date and time will be sent via email once registration is complete.

This field day is geared towards assisting other farmers and producers in the area transitioning to Regenerative Organic Certified® production, as well as onboard other stakeholders who want to be educated in the process and desired outcomes of this style of farming and land stewardship.

This dynamic day will give participants a first hand look into the process in which The Ecology Center under took to become certified as well as the tools and techniques they employ for a regenerative outcome. We will look at the soil and understand the rich process of engagement with the land, meet fellow farmers, partners and collaborators, share a meal and resources towards building a more resilient food system.
