This New Roots Roundtable will feature guest speaker Elise Nowack, an Organic Conservation Specialist! Elise works at the intersection of NRCS (the Natural Resource Conservation Service) and organic farming systems. They will provide a broad introduction to NRCS and describe the ways that NRCS can support organic producers via technical and financial assistance programs.
New Roots Roundtables are casual gatherings of producers interested in learning more about organic certification. All are welcome!
What’s in store:
A 20-minute overview of NRCS and organic support programs
Open Q&A and discussion
A chance to network with other farmers on the organic path!
