Bi-Monthly Go Nuts Community Call
January 4 @ 7:00 pm EST
During this call, we will discuss all things related to agroforestry, from planting and tree establishment to infrastructure and consumer access. This includes insight into the variety of species of trees and shrubs and their various applications as well as discussing more technical elements such as soil health or animal integration.
All of these discussions are grounded in the relevancy of agroforestry as a unified food systems solution, and how it can help sustain our environment, improve soil health and boost community resilience. Our goal is to provide an informative and entertaining experience for our participants, so don’t hesitate to call in with questions or comments. We look forward to hearing from you!
Topics include:
- Types of Agroforestry
- Soil health for perennial systems as different from annuals
- Marketing and consumer outreach of tree crops (buying, eating, etc.)
- Grant and funding opportunities
- Planting and tree establishment/care in pre-production years
- Harvesting and post-harvest handling
