Farm Clubs

Are you an organic farmer, a future farmer, or curious about organic practices?

This  winter’s Farm Clubs offer a space for farmers, whether you’re a seasoned  organic farmer or just beginning your journey in sustainable agriculture. These clubs are your  opportunity to share your best management practices with your peers, learn from industry experts, and reconnect within our community. It’s also an  opportunity to express the kind of facilitation YOU would like to see. Welding workshops?   Application assistance? Cost-share programs? This is a chance to discuss with MOA the programming you would like to see.

What to Expect:

¨ Funding Opportunities: Discover all the current funding opportunities available to you as a sustainable farmer.

¨ Knowledge Sharing: Connect with your fellow organic farmers, share your experiences, and gain valuable insights for your farm.

¨ Resource Access: Get access to human and online resources to help your farm excel.

¨ Find out where to rent specialized equipment, share custom work opportunities, and more.

¨ Best Management Practices: Dive into the nitty-gritty of organic farming with  discussions and workshops on the most effective management practices.
