Climate Adaptation Field Walk at Scott Farm Orchard

Adapting to climate change looks different on every farm. This field walk in the orchards at Scott Farm will explore the range of climate risks impacting orchards and diversified farms, from changing rainfall patterns to extreme temperature fluctuations. Scott Farm manager Simon Renault and orchardist Erin Robinson will share insights into the diverse strategies they're using to adapt to these challenges, with a focus on business planning and preventative management. ​

This workshop is offered in partnership with the American Farmland Trust and generously supported by the Conservation Innovation Grants program at USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service Vermont State Office.
