You will have the opportunity to hear directly from Ag partner agencies and supporting organizations about their resources, ask questions in real time related to livestock support and soil remediation, and provide feedback to agencies to best shape the future of agriculture in WNC.

Throughout the day, we’ll be offering 1-on-1 relief assistance sessions, breakout room discussions, relaxation activities, and we’ll end with a local farm-to-table dinner.

All farmers, regardless of Helene impacts, are welcome to join and learn about available resources, as well as contribute to recovery discussions. We have a limited number of gas cards available to further support farmer attendance.

This event is sponsored by Empowering Mountain Food Systems (EMFS), a project of the Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS), and N.C. Cooperative Extension.
