Today, farms are less resilient than they used to be. Farms have gotten larger and there are fewer neighbors to depend on. Less crop diversity means less economic resilience if a crop fails. Less variety on the land creates vulnerable landscapes.
Reclaiming Resilience will examine the current state of our farms and our food systems. Practical Farmers of Iowa’s 2020 conference will explore what’s working well and why, as well as what needs to change.
The conference will include time to create and strengthen relationships with others.
