The CRAFT* of Farming

​

Our 2020 CRAFT Program provided virtual learning opportunities for farmers, aspiring farmers, farm workers, and food-aware members of the public. In live Zoom webinars, attendees learned from experienced growers, shared with peers, acquired technical education and built social support. The program expanded in 2020! We offered six tours from July to October, all of which are now available to watch online.

Film Screenings & Panel Discussions

​

NOFA-NH periodically hosts both in-person and virtual film screenings and panel discussions. In November 2020, we ​hosted a virtual discussion with leaders from around the state and region to explore specific ways that localized, organic, regenerative growing and eating can contribute to the repair of unjust social structures, personal health, and the environment that sustains us.

Education & Activism

 

NOFA-NH is dedicated to building a community of organic food activists and educated consumers to help support New Hampshire's local organic farming community. Organic farming is important to creating a sustainable future because the practices of organic agriculture help to reverse climate change, restore vitality to the soil, and build healthy communities for all living creatures. 

 

We recognize that more resources and greater education is needed to help farmers, gardeners, and consumers learn to work together to build a support network. In an age of industrial agriculture, we're working to re-establish a shared sense of pride and participation in a community-based food system that links local farmers with local consumers, and rewards them both equally.
