Thank you farmers & attendees for a
powerful Love Local event in 2023.
Challenges, Adaptations, Stewardship
& how we can help our local food system thrive.
2023 was a particularly challenging growing season for New England farmers and food producers, given the extreme weather events across the region and increasingly unpredictable weather patterns. From a late freeze to record rainfall and flooding, the already challenging task of growing food is becoming increasingly difficult for our farmers. These challenges continue, and the efforts of our local farmers and food system folks are more important than ever to our community’s resilience.
The issues our farmers are facing are ongoing all of the time, and there’s a place for all of us to make a difference. Stay tuned and join us for our 4th Annual Love Local Event on November 12th from 6-8pm. It’s free and virtual, so anyone is invited to tune in from anywhere and learn from the incredible featured organizations in this year’s event. Learn more and register here!
