Join us on June 20th for a tour of Wild Earth Farms, where we’ll explore the ups and downs of working cover crops into a vegetable rotation. Wild Earth Farms grows over 100 varieties of vegetables, herbs and fruits on their small 20 acre farm near Oakbank, Manitoba.
We’ll discuss the farm’s cover cropping goals for the year, and tour a section of land that was cover-cropped in 2024, talking through our observations and sharing cover crop stories. Manitoba Agriculture’s Vegetable Extension Specialist, Tom Gonsalves, will also be on hand to demonstrate and discuss water infiltration. There’ll be plenty of time for networking, too! Snacks and coffee will be provided, but attendees are also invited to join the organizers after the tour at Pineridge Hollow to eat and talk shop.
WHEN: Friday, June 20, 2025 | 1-4pm
