NAFEX Regional Excursion – Midwest
September 16, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
$15 – $25
Sobremesa Farm has generously offered to open up their beautiful permaculture farm and orchard for a special Midwest event. This will be a unique chance to see the hundreds of fruits, nuts and veggies they grow using organic methods!
We’ll be doing a farm tour and discussing the methods they use. We’ll also be talking about climate issues and the increasing challenges we all as growers face with late frosts, drought, torrential rains, etc. We’ll be eager for you to share your experiences.
We will also do an auction, so plan to bring any related fruit or nut items such as grafted trees, rootstock, seeds, books, etc, if you have something to donate.
This will be an excellent opportunity to talk with other growers in the Midwest, learn about different approaches to growing, and discuss what cultivars are, and are not, doing well with these climate challenges.
The event begins at 10 a.m. and ends at 3 p.m. The cost is $15 for NAFEX members and $25 for general admission. NAFEX membership is only $19/year. You can join today at nafex.org.
Reserve your spot today: nafexevents.ticketleap.com/midwest-excursion/
BYO Lunch, lawn chair, and auction item if you have something to donate. Cash preferred for winning bids but we can take credit card if needed. Dress for the outdoors.
