Ready, Set, Go! New Climate and Agriculture Funding

Are you thinking about increasing water efficiencies in your operation? Or perhaps doing a conservation easement on your land? Or identifying ways to sequester carbon and reduce greenhouse gas emissions on your farm? If so, come to this working session on state climate change and agriculture. Learn about initiatives that can provide funding to support sustainable practices on your farm. Among the programs we'll review is the new Healthy Soils Initiative, aimed at improving soil health and supporting innovative on-farm practices.
