November 16
Farmers for Climate Action will bring together farmers, experts, and community members at Lewisham Farm in the Northern Midlands on 24 November for a field day covering sustainable agriculture, climate resilience, and environmental conservation.
Summer is fast approaching and conditions for many farmers are getting hotter and drier. This field day will share information, ideas and solutions to respond to the challenges of El Niño and a changing climate, in particular around fire preparedness and supporting biodiversity.
