This free one-day event, held by the OSU Urban Ag Team in cooperation with the Cleveland Farm Service Agency, will bring together urban farmers, community leaders and agriculture professionals to share practical knowledge, innovative resources, and local success stories to support urban agriculture in Northeast Ohio and beyond. If you are new to urban agriculture, this is a great opportunity to connect with the local urban ag network. Throughout the event, our keynote and invited speakers will present on five key topics of urban farming, including the path to a successful urban farm, high tunnel production, integrated pest management, marketing, and business management. A panel of experienced urban farmers will share their practical strategies in overcoming challenges in urban farming during the lunch and learn session. Representatives from local and state organizations will exhibit resources and services provided specifically for urban producers.
Registration is free and required, and lunch will be provided. Please register by October 15th using this link: http://go.osu.edu/harvestingsuccess to receive further guidance about the event.
