Ollin Farms Soil and Community Health Presentation

Tuesday, Feb. 20, 6:00 p.m.

Join in on an update from Ollin Farms and friends on the current efforts to increase soil health in Boulder County, while also increasing access to locally grown food. Economic and environmental pressures on our local farmers are rising and so are the innovative approaches to managing nutrients, water, and biological systems on food-producing lands.

Working together we can restore our connection to the natural world through ecosystem restoration, seasonal eating, and community connection.

This evening will be filled with presentations from local project managers along with tables of local businesses, and plenty of opportunities to educate yourself and get involved.
