SUMMARY:Compost Conference Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:The CT Compost Conference scheduled for March 2020\, which had been postponed has been restructured into a series of 5 free webinars. While we won’t have the opportunities to network\, this event continues to play a critical role in Connecticut’s ability to better manage food scraps through composting. \nThis CT Compost Webinar series provides information and resources for farmers and municipalities to expand their leaf and/or manure composting operation to include food scraps. The focus of workshops will include the benefits to soil health\, conservation\, food waste management\, and climate adaptation. Compost manufacturing and compost utilization are vital to producing healthy soils\, clean air and water\, and sustainable society. \n\nWEBINAR 1 – August 26th from 4-6 pm\n“Different Scales of Composting: From Municipalities to Farms”\nRobert Isner (CT DEEP)\, James McSweeney (Compost Technical Services\, Arlington\, MA)\, Coreyanne Mansell (CET\, MA) \n \n  \nWEBINAR 2 | September 9th from 4-6 pm\n“Municipal Composting; Case Studies/Updates”\nCoryanne Mansell\, CET\, MA \nAthena Lee Bradley\, Windham Solid Waste Management District\, Brattleboro\, VT \nDoug Colter\, City of West Haven \nJennifer Heaton-Jones\, HRRA \nDave Aldridge\, SCRRRA \n \n  \nWEBINAR 3 | September 23rd from 4-6 pm\n“Advanced Composting: Building Quality with Recipes\, Testing\, Nutrient Management & Environmental Planning”\nDomingo Medina (CT NOFA)\, Dawn Pettinelli (UCONN)\, James Hyde (USDA NRCS) \n \n  \nWEBINAR 4 | October 7th from 4-6 pm\n“Composting: Feedstocks\, Equipment\, Siting\, Infrastructure & Management”\nAndrew Carpenter (Northern Tilth\, Maine)\, Peter Moon (O2Compost) \n \n  \nWEBINAR 5 | October 28th from 4-6 pm\n“Farm Composting: Case Studies/Updates”\nMike Carrigan\, Agresource\n \nJack Collins\, Collins Compost \nBrian Jerose\, Agrilab Technologies \nDr. Candace Benyei\, Whimsy Brook Farm \n \n

SUMMARY:ORGANIC GRAIN WORKSHOPS: HARVESTING\, STORAGE\, AND PROCESSING  -  Session One 10/19: Production with a focus on harvesting
DESCRIPTION:The first of three workshops focused on the growing and production of grain crops. It’s the final year of our NE SARE grant lead by Elizabeth Dyck\, the coordinator of the Organic Growers’ Research and Information-Sharing Network (OGRIN).  The training program will be a series of three intensive 75 minute online short courses with video field days/workshops that will largely be taught by farmers and NE Grain Experts and located on farms and/or at processing venues. \nSession One 10/19: Production with a focus on harvesting. Harvesting continues to be critical especially for new grain farmers who are not familiar with combines.
