On February 20, agrarian communities from across California converge in Sonoma County's Shone Farm to re-envision our food system at The Farmers Guild's 3rd Annual Farmers Guild Raising. We call upon you, farmers and good food advocates alike, to come forge local solutions to our agricultural and food system challenges, all while celebrating the newest generation of food and farms.
All eight Farmers Guilds—from the Mendocino Coast down to San Luis Obisbo—unite for this day of workshops and networking to engage on vital issues such as:
- carbon farming
- land access and agricultural policy
- growers’ cooperatives
- innovative markets for organic produce
Return home with new connections, tools and inspiration to enhance your farm and empower your community. Check out the schedule so far by clicking here. And don't forget to stick around for a farm-fresh dinner and the Agrarian Lover's Ball!
