SUMMARY:Seeds of Success: Pest and Disease Management for Organic Farms in the Northwest
DESCRIPTION:Join the Organic Farming Research Foundation (OFRF) on Thursday\, August 27\, at 12:00 pm PT for a webinar designed for organic and transitioning farmers across the Northwest. \nManaging pests and disease organically isn’t easy. The Northwest throws a lot at growers\, from crop-specific insect pressure to diseases that can wreck a harvest fast. Having the right tools and knowledge on hand can make all the difference. \nThe session will open with an overview of OFRF’s organic farming resources\, followed by a panel discussion featuring experienced organic farmers and researchers: \n\nEllie Costello\, Trust Land Farm (MT)\nSarahlee Lawrence\, Rainshadow Organics (OR)\nRobert Orpet\, OSU Assistant Professor of Entomology\n\nPanelists will share field-tested strategies for managing pests and disease within organic systems\, informed by both direct farming experience and current research. The discussion will address real challenges facing growers today\, alongside approaches that align with organic production standards. \nA facilitated Q&A will follow\, giving you the opportunity to ask questions directly of the panel. \nSign up at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_cnt3P5TRSji-8DvU0VwFLw#/registration.
