11/21 | Scaling Agroforestry in the Finger Lakes – Ithaca Presentation and Discussion

11/21/2024
5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Flyer for Planting Trees on Farms event November 21 and 23

 

From our friends at Propagate: 

 

Join us to discuss scaling agroforestry in The Finger Lakes. Propagate manages 2,400+ acres of agroforestry in New York, Kentucky, Ohio, and Tennessee. We are looking to expand agroforestry practices in New York State. Agroforestry has emerged as a place-based agriculturally-productive climate solution, and we’re looking for community feedback before planting many more trees. What would you like to see planted? How would you like to see it managed?

 

FREE to attend. Please RSVP below.

 

Note: There are TWO sessions! Saturday is here.
