Business Name: New Dawn Farm

How long have you been a member of NOFA-NH?  Since spring of this year.

Why did you become a member of NOFA-NH? We became a member to access a broader community of farm folks and their various expertise.  

How has NOFA-NH impacted your business?  We don't think it's particularly impacted our customer base [yet], but it's given us another place to ask questions or reach out to people when something has gone amiss in our fields. 

What's your number one priority for NOFA-NH this year?  Having a few different women-focused and/or queer-focused workshops at the next conference would be really helpful. There are many different kinds of people who farm in this state and it would be great to see them represented! 

What advice do you have for anyone thinking about becoming a NOFA-NH member?  It's worth it! And definitely make sure you attend the conferences - it's a great opportunity to meet, mingle, and learn with other farm folks in the state.
