On October 6, join Organic BC and local producers in Telkwa, BC for a day of on-farm fun and learning! Don’t miss:
- A tour of True North Farm, a small-scale, mixed operation farm incorporating rotational grazing of sheep, pigs, chickens, alongside their vegetable market garden and honey bee operation. They’ll highlight their closed-loop principles (using their own on-farm inputs and little else), cover cropping program, intensive rotational grazing, no-till practices and more–and of course the bees!
- A hands-on session with Jo Tobias of RootShoot Soils. Jo is a regenerative soils & living compost specialist who will outline the fascinating world of soil microorganisms and their critical roles in soil health and plant development. She will also test True North’s compost and compost teas and show you how to farm these wonderful microbes and maximize their potential.
- Lunch at Happy Pig Organic Farm. Lunch provided. Enjoy lunch and social time at Happy Pig’s on-farm food truck.
This is a free event, open to all, but registration is required.
