Agenda del evento

Join us Thursday, November 7 at 4 pm ET for our free webinar, Climate Adaptation in Action, and get started on your climate adaptation journey.

This webinar is for farmers and landowners who want to start taking action to plan for ongoing and future impacts of climate change.  We will briefly overview of climate impacts on vegetable and flower farms nationwide, including precipitation and temperature trends.  Then, we'll explore how to approach climate adaptation planning and available tools you can choose from. Two farmers who have started climate adaptation practices on their farms will join us: Sal Daggett of Stubborn Oak Farmstead in Wisconsin will share their process in evaluating risks and making a climate adaptation plan;  Kyle Burns of Burns Blossom Farm will discuss adaptation practices he uses on his farm in California.   

The presentation will run approximately 60 minutes, followed by a Q&A session where our presenters will answer questions from the audience. Space is limited—register today!

Johnny's is pleased to present this webinar in partnership with American Farmland Trust.
