Small Scale Grains PANEL DISCUSSION

Sun, Jul 18, 11am-1pm at the Treehouse Farm Collective - 8104 N 63rd St, Longmont, CO 80503

Google maps will take you to the house, which is north of the entrance to the farm. You want to find the first driveway north of Oxford Road. So if coming from the south, look for the greenhouse/metal barn and hoop houses at the top of the hill. You’ll turn into a driveway on the right with the wood frame over the top, some orange cones, and a yellow “Organic Farm Do Not Spray” sign, after a large irrigation pond. If coming from the north, turn into the next driveway past the house on your left. You’ll see a pond; turn before the pond.

Join us for a roundtable discussion with up and coming farmers sharing their personal stories of growing grains on a small scale.  Come listen to their hurdles, successes, and lessons learned.
