SUMMARY:Groundwork: Mid-Atlantic Soil Health Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Northeast Cover Crops Council is proud to be a co-organizer of the upcoming Groundwork soil health conference to be held in Harrisburg\, PA February 24-25\, 2027. Groundwork is a new regional conference for Mid-Atlantic farmers who are thinking long-term – about their soil\, their operation\, and who farms after them. Built around farmer-to-farmer learning and group discussion\, Groundwork brings together people who’d rather learn from someone who’s actually done it than someone who’s trying to sell it. No hidden agendas\, just real experience\, openly shared\, from people who are investing in the long haul.
