The Care Farming Network celebrated our "virtual launch" on October 6th! We shared our history of how we began, heard from four Care Farms throughout the country, and hosted an open forum to hear from members about how we can offer support to farmers and grow a robust national network. Special thanks to Desert Survivors, Old School Farms, Urban Autism Solutions, and Little Otter Flower Farm for sharing your knowledge with members!
