A full day tour of two seed saving farms with EFAO farmer-researchers? Sign us up! Join Kristine Hammel of Persephone Market Garden and Rony Lec of Luna Mia Farm in Grey-Bruce to hear more about their seed and vegetable production and farmer-led research.
Join farmer-researcher and former EFAO staff member Dillon Muldoon at the Trent Farm Research Centre to see research in action, tour the Trent Market Garden, learn more about the Society for Ecological Restoration’s native plant nursery and see the tepary beans project, part of Growing Indigenous Food for All of our Futures.
Join us for this special, full-day field day, beginning with a tour of Manorun Farm that will culminate in an in-depth look and conversation about what has made their farm store successful. The group will then convene for an on-farm lunch followed by a group conversation about local food policy and how we can work with our local representatives to make an impact. The day will end with a work bee where we all team up on a farm task.
