SUMMARY:Cricket Creek Farm: Dairy Production\, Grazing\, and Processing
DESCRIPTION:Cricket Creek is a grass-based dairy farm managed by a small team of collaborators.  The entire farm is comprised of about 500 acres\, about 150 of which is hay fields\, just over 100 is pasture\, and the rest is wooded.  We are one of the oldest dairy farms in the region\, but infused with new life and energy.  Our primary activity is raising dairy cows for their good milk.  Our milking herd ranges between 35 and 40 lactating animals\, depending on the time of yea\,r and the entire dairy herd is about 80 animals including the dry cows and young stock.  We sell raw milk from our farm and the rest of our milk we make into artisanal cheese in our farmstead creamery; in 2017 we made about 47\,000 lbs of cheese.  We raise grass-fed beef and whey-fed pork.  We sell our goods through our farm store\, at local farmers markets\, and through various regional cheese shops\, food co-ops\, restaurants\, and other establishments.  Our mission is to produce nourishing food that honors our animals\, respects the land and feeds our community\, and to exemplify a sustainable model for small-farm viability. \nOur workshop will be an overview of running a small diversified dairy farm.  We will discuss rotational grazing\, dairy cow health issues\, our nurse cow system\, milking schedules\, farmstead cheese production\, raw milk and cheese marketing and sales.  We will talk about our systems for integrating other enterprises on the dairy farm.  We will share the challenges and successes financially turning around an old dairy farm and what it means to run a sustainable dairy operation.  Our current iteration of Cricket Creek is fairly new and we are relatively young farmers; we can give the perspective of a start-up business including the intricacies of getting well established and grounded with careful planning and record keeping.

SUMMARY:UMass Student Farm: Approaches to Pest Management
DESCRIPTION:In our visit\, we will tour the Agricultural Learning Center and discuss the Student Farm’s approach to pest management. We will briefly discuss Integrated Pest Management\, its meaning\, and how it is applied on our farm. We will also discuss management roles on the farm\, specifically around the role of our IPM management role taken on every year by one of our interns. \nThe UMass Student Farm is truly a student-run farm.  Each season\, up to 15 undergraduate students participate in the cooperative planning and management of our 20-acre vegetable farm\, certified with Baystate Organics as well as the Real Organic Project. Our student farmers represent a variety of backgrounds and come from many departments on campus as well as from the other Five Colleges in which they receive college credit for their participation. The Student Farm has been under the direction of Amanda Brown since 2007 and has been managed by Jason Dragon since 2019. Our primary markets are UMass community members via a 100-plus member CSA\, the four UMass dining halls\, and student-run businesses on campus. Also\, the farm’s only off-campus sales come from working with and selling to four local Big Y supermarkets. \nDate: Monday\, July 8\, 4pm-7pm \nLocation: UMass Student Farm\, 911 North Pleasant St. Amherst\, MA

SUMMARY:Woven Roots Farm: Hand Scale Farming and Community Care
DESCRIPTION:Situated on 10 acres\, our farm has 2.5 acres in cultivation in a permanent bed\, hand-scale farming system. This system is managed by a dynamic team of 10 farmers that grow over 70 different crops throughout the year. Our produce\, herbs\, and flowers connect with over 250 families annually\, mostly through our low/no-cost solidarity share program. This visit will provide an overview of our farming practices and how our work has evolved over the last two decades in response to our community. \nWoven Roots Farm is a traditional\, hand-scale vegetable farm\, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program\, and education center located on unceded Mohican homelands in the so-called southern Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts. Through a deep relationship with the land and one another\, we commit to feeding\, educating\, and empowering our community members by co-creating equitable pathways to become healthier individuals\, ethical growers\, and caretakers of the earth and one another. \nWe celebrate that agriculture itself is rooted in the long-standing cultural practices within communities of Indigenous people\, people of color\, and immigrants. We acknowledge that the US was built on stolen land and that all US systems are built on the stolen labor of Black\, Indigenous\, Latinx\, Asian\, and other people of color. \nOur agricultural practices are centered in the ancestral ways of acknowledging nature as a part of us\, just as much as we are a part of nature. We recognize the interconnectedness of all life—soil\, plants\, microbes\, insects\, and animals. We embrace these connections and seek to enhance them\, not to disturb them. In direct opposition to colonized agriculture\, we move through a space of reciprocity that prioritizes our responsibility as land stewards and caregivers. Click here for more information. \nFarm Tour: Monday\, July 29 – 4PM-6PM  \nDiscussion and Potluck: Monday\, July 29\, 6PM – 7PM  \nLocation: WOVEN ROOTS FARM\, 12 McCarty Rd\, Tyringham\, MA 01264
