MENDOCINO CO., 8/30/18 — Are you curious about how other local farmers are working and organizing their business to “work smarter, not harder?” As part of an ongoing series of “farmer to farmer” technical workshops, there will be a free event on September 17 at Fortunate Farm in Caspar, where you can get advice about “how to design your farm layout, whole farm systems, and things to consider when planning and mapping out production space.” The workshops are organized by the School of Adaptive Agriculture, the Farmers Guild, CAFF, the Mendo-Lake Food Hub, and the the UC Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program.

Fortunate Farms just received an award from Congressman Jared Huffman for their work on carbon sequestration and sustainable farming through their partnership with North Coast Brewing Company, so there should be lots of interesting information at the workshop. But space is limited, so make sure you RVSP by September 10. The workshop will go from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and include a tour and potluck lunch; travel reimbursements are available.
