Forest Farming Fundamentals

  • Friday, November 17, 2023, 10:00 AM - 1:30 PM

If you are a land manager and are ready to learn more about the agroforestry practice of forest farming, this training is for you. Forest farming is the intentional integration of farming crops under the canopy of the forest and can building both diversity and resilience into farming systems.

The increasing interest in agroforestry among land managers has produced a growing need for technical assistance. Join us and learn about the principles, design considerations, benefits, and challengers of farming in the forest.

An online introductory course is available to watch in preparation for the training. This in-person class is free, and the online courses are $30.00 at www.learnagroforestry.com
