SFA is thrilled to be part of Farm Aid’s 40th annual festival — the first one held in Minnesota!
From noon to 5 PM, you’ll find us in “The Fertile Ground” neighborhood of HOMEGROWN Village. We’re demonstrating the differences between soil samples from fields managed conventionally and regeneratively using a slake test. We’re really looking forward to chatting about the soil health principles with concertgoers and making new connections.
Fellow “villagers” include Marbleseed, Land Stewardship Project, the Minnesota Soil Health Coalition, Renewing the Countryside, Minnesota Farmers Union, and so many more allies from the Midwest and across the country. We encourage you to come say hello to our staff and to enjoy everybody’s engaging exhibits and activities!
If you can’t attend, there are several ways to still enjoy the concert from wherever you are.
