Come share farming successes and celebrate the season’s misadventures!
Join us this December 5th, 2020 for the Inaugural Farmer-to-Farmer Summit!
The growing of food is an act of resiliency and sustainability, often led by People of Color, specifically Black, Indigenous, and Latinx communities. We acknowledge that during this current health pandemic, issues of food access, sovereignty, justice and inequity have been exacerbated.
The Urban Farmer-to-Farmer Summit has been created in solidarity to provide more structure for the NYC Urban Farm Community to come together. In community and collaboration, we aim to share resources, reflect on misadventures, strengthen connections, and highlight new opportunities to rise to the challenges of our times. Our hope is to make this an annual farmer-driven event with a low barrier to participate.
Have an Idea for a Session?
Whether you want to share a new DIY method you learned for dealing with blight, talk about how your farm’s harvesting practices have changed during COVID, or share a workshop on farmer self-care practices, we’re here for it and are accepting proposals through October 12th 11:59pm est.
