Open Forums for NH Farmers

Extension will hold reoccurring Zoom (or via telephone) meetings for New Hampshire's agricultural community

Tuesday, March 24, 2020

UNH Extension will host an online forum (using Zoom) for New Hampshire farmers to discuss how they are adapting in these uncertain times, due to COVID-19. Participation by phone is encouraged if internet connection is weak. Growers and producers can join the reoccurring meetings through video chat or by phone. This collaborative space will allow farmers to share information and concerns about how the public health pandemic is affecting their operations while strategizing for success in the months ahead.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

No Wednesday evening calls are planned at this time. Check back for updates as we add more in the future.
