Oxford College Farm is hosting a Farmer Field Day on Monday, Oct. 7, 2024, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Participants will learn everything they need to know to start using cover crops on their organic farm right away. Cover crops are a key practice, along with crop rotation, on the Oxford College Farm and any other Certified Organic farm. This field day will teach growers the why and how of using cover crops successfully.

The field day will include a mix of classroom-style learning and hands-on demonstrations of cover crop planting. Participants will learn from someone who has over 25 years of experience using cover crops to enhance fertility, manage insect pests ecologically, reduce weed pressure, and mitigate crop disease.
