A Care Farm can be structured in several ways. Understanding the various models- and their pros and cons- will help you identify which makes the most sense as you begin your care farming journey. We also cover zoning and insurance issues, walk through how you develop a list of needs for your land and facilities, and provide resources to help you navigate the process.
This is the second session in our 3-Part Beginning Care Farming Virtual Series, scheduled throughout the month of September. Each session focuses on a specific topic that aspiring care farmers should consider as they begin their journey.
