SUMMARY:Farmer Climate Forum: Farmer Perspectives on Flooding\, Adaptation\, and Building Farm Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Click here for more information. \nFarmers throughout New England have been severely impacted by extreme precipitation and flooding. As a result\, farms are innovating\, exploring creative and meaningful ways to adapt their businesses and production systems to climate change. Join us for a discussion with Amanda Andrews of Tamarack Hollow Farm\, Bruce Hennessey of Maple Wind Farm\, and Ryan Fitzbeauchamp of Evening Song Farm to learn how both vegetable and livestock producers throughout New England are impacted by flooding and at the same time adapting their farms to build resilience. \nTheir presentations will be followed by a facilitated farmer-to-farmer discussion. Come to listen\, share your experiences\, ask questions\, troubleshoot\, and be inspired to make your own farm more resilient. \nThe Climate Forums are brought to you by NOFA-VT and the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA). \nThis event is one in a three-part series discussing Flooding\, Excess Precipitation\, and Farm Resilience. At the registration link you can choose to attend whichever sessions you wish.

SUMMARY:Farmer Climate Forum: New England Climate Trends\, Soil Hydrology\, and Managing the Effects of Soil Saturation
DESCRIPTION:Click here for more information. \nSean Birkel\, Research Assistant Professor at the University of Maine and the Maine State Climatologist\, will review Maine’s historical temperature and precipitation trends and future climate projections\, and discuss impacts to the growing season. Sean will give an overview of online tools relevant to agriculture\, including growing degree day and precipitation summaries\, frost date estimates\, and other resources. \nJoshua Faulkner\, Director of the UVM Extension Center for Sustainable Agriculture\, will discuss general soil and hydrology concepts that relate to drainage and water management in agriculture in the context of extreme rainfall.  He will also address how saturation and soil moisture status can affect nutrient cycling and soil health factors and how those relate to farm management practices. \nTheir presentations will be followed by a facilitated farmer-to-farmer discussion. Come to listen\, share your experiences\, ask questions\, troubleshoot\, and be inspired to make your own farm more resilient. \nThe Climate Forums are brought to you by NOFA-VT and the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA). \nThis event is one in a three-part series discussing Flooding\, Excess Precipitation\, and Farm Resilience.
