SUMMARY:Cover Cropping Strategies for Organic Systems in the West
DESCRIPTION:Cover crops are one of the most powerful tools available to organic and transitioning farmers\, but getting them right in western growing conditions takes knowledge and experience. This webinar brings together researchers and practitioners to share what the science says and what is working on the ground. \nOFRF Conservation Scientist Rebecca Champagne\, PhD\, will present current research on cover crops for western organic systems\, covering soil health\, nutrient and weed management\, pollinator support\, and grazing integration. Shannon Cappellazzi\, PhD\, Soil Health Extension Specialist with Oregon State University\, and Anthony Reyes\, Director of Agriculture at Oxbow Farm and Conservation Center\, will join the panel to offer research and on-farm perspectives from real-world experience in the region. \nAttendees will leave with practical strategies for cover crop selection and management\, an introduction to the Western Cover Crops Council selection tool\, and NOP compliance context. This webinar is ideal for: extension agents\, technical service providers\, crop advisors\, and organic and transitioning farmers. Certified Crop Advisors: 1.0 CEU in Crop Management. Credit instructions provided at the close of the session. \nREGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:Fall & Winter Cover Crop Management at Oxbow Farm and Conservation Center
DESCRIPTION:Join OFRF in Carnation\, WA at the Oxbow Farm and Conservation Center this September! Explore the art and science of cover crop management through hands-on\, field-based learning to build healthier soil and resilient farms. This field day\, focused on the fall & winter season asks: How can cover crops build and protect soil during the dormant season? Attendees will learn how cool-season cover crops can be integrated into small-scale farm systems to stabilize soil\, manage crop residue\, support soil biology\, and prepare fields for spring production. \nThe day will start with a deep dive into fall and winter cover crop design\, including variety selection\, timing\, site preparation\, seeding strategies\, and residue management. Then\, participants will head into the fields to observe seasonal cover crops in action and discuss the tools and decision-making processes that support successful establishment and long-term soil health. \nRegister here for the event!\nThis in-person event complements OFRF’s upcoming webinar on Cover Cropping Strategies for Organic Systems in the West\, which will be held on September 10th\, 2026 at 10am PST\, featuring a farmer panel that includes Anthony Reyes\, Director of Agriculture at Oxbow Farm and Conservation Center.
