Farming in a Changing Environment
In Northwest Connecticut, the changing climate isn’t an abstract debate; it’s in the fields, the greenhouses, and the creeks that run through them. Farmers here are adjusting planting schedules, managing unpredictable rainfall, and finding new ways to protect soil and water. These adaptations are as much about survival as they are about stewardship.
On Wednesday, September 24, the public will have a chance to hear directly from the people on the front lines of these shifts. Berkshire Agricultural Ventures will present its third annual climate-focused forum, hosted this year by The Farmer’s Table and the Northwest Connecticut Land Conservancy at De Hoek Farm in New Milford. After a farm tour will be remarks on statewide perspective on climate and agriculture from Commissioner Bryan Hurlburt, followed by a moderated farmer panel. See the event registration page for more details!
- Date: September 24th, 4-7:30pm
- Location: De Hoek Farm, 32 Hine Road, New Milford, CT 06776
