Organic Soil Health Field School: Train-the-Trainer

Join the Center for Environmental Farming Systems for the Organic Soil Health Field School, a hands-on workshop focused on practical soil health strategies for organic farming systems. This train-the-trainer workshop is designed for Extension agents, farmers, educators, agency partners and agricultural stakeholders working with row crops, small-scale vegetables and specialty crops. Participants will learn about organic soil health practices, crop production, soil biology, soil carbon, greenhouse gas emissions and more.
