Savanna Institute offers an insightful in-person event with Erik Hagan from Farm Directly as he shares the design process behind the newly planted windbreak at Valley Farm. Learn why windbreaks are so valuable to farms, exploring the many benefits they provide. Erik will explain how the windbreak was installed this spring and what he expects moving forward, including important lessons learned from this project. This is a fantastic opportunity to deepen your understanding of sustainable farm management and the role of windbreaks in protecting and enhancing farm ecosystems.
