American Farmland Trust (AFT) and Connecticut Resource Conservation & Development Area (CT RC&D) invite you to participate in a farmer-to-farmer Soil Health Symposium to learn and network with soil-health oriented livestock and vegetable farmers across southern New England.

The program will feature concurrent farmer-led workshop tracks and roundtable sessions for livestock and specialty crop producers (vegetable, fruit, flowers, herbs) on practical, innovative and effective practices for accelerating soil health gains. Workshop topics will include advanced cover cropping, prescribed grazing and pasture management, low and no-till farming methods, and farm hacks for fencing, equipment, efficiency, and more. Please RSVP* below.

Lunch and refreshments provided. We ask that service providers pay $25 for lunch. Lunch is free for farmers. You may also decline lunch provided at the event and bring your own, if you choose. Please select your lunch option during checkout.

Please register by 2/3/26

*Space for Agricultural Service Providers is limited and available on a first-come first-served basis, in order to accommodate space for Farmers. Thank you for understanding.
