Seeds of Success: Crop Livestock Integration
June 26 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
FreeJoin us on Thursday, June 26th from 2-3 pm ET for our Seeds of Success session: Crop Livestock Integration. Crop-livestock integration is a holistic system that integrates the production of cash crops and livestock on the same piece of land or within the same farming operation. While farms implementing crop-livestock integration can lower input costs and reap many benefits, this integration can also lead to increased complexity, especially for farmers who must adhere to National Organic Program rules and regulations.
This Seeds of Success will be an engaging opportunity for farmers to come together to ask questions and share their lived experience in integrating crops and livestock in their production systems. In this session we will feature three farmers that have built resilience and a dynamic organic system.
Ben Coerper, Wild Harmony Farm
Tomia MacQueen, Wildflower Farm
Raymond Hain, Grain Place Foundation
