NOFA-VT September Member Meeting

“Let’s create what’s possible, together.”


That’s a call we’ve been hearing from NOFA-VT members—and it’s why we’re launching a new series of monthly NOFA-VT Meetings. These online gatherings are open to all members and to anyone curious about joining and being part of NOFA-VT’s work.

Our first meeting will be Tuesday, September 23, 6–7:15 pm, focused on the drought: what we’re seeing and experiencing, where to find immediate support, and how we can organize around systemic solutions like the Farm Security Fund. From there, we’ll meet every third Tuesday of the month.
