Reed Farm: Composting for Business Diversification and Climate Change Adaptation
September 20, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
FREEJoin Reed Farm for a look at their composting enterprise that adapts to climate change by diversifying income streams and reducing farm waste. Reed Farm received an adaptation grant from CISA in 2022 and used it to attend the Maine Compost School to learn about turning their farm’s “waste” into compost and a new source of income. Come tour the farm’s processing plant, production house, and composting field, and learn about changes and updates to their operation.
Presenters: Kat Chang Laznicka and Peter Reed Laznicka own and operate Reed Farm in Sunderland, MA, a small scale pastured poultry farm and state inspected poultry processing facility offering processing services to the local farming community. Since opening in 2019, Reed Farm has been awarded state and federal grants to expand production and progress their on-site processing facility towards a USDA grant of inspection.
- Date: September 20th, 4:00-5:30pm
- Location: Reed Farm, 136 Russell St, Sunderland MA
