SUMMARY:Ask an Expert: Sustainability Practices to Incorporate into Your Farm
DESCRIPTION:So you want to be a more sustainable farmer but are uncertain how to get started? We’ve got you: Join Mandy and Steve O’Shea of 3 Porch Farms as they cover a sampling of easy-to-incorporate practices that will reduce the environmental impact of your farm. \n3 Porch Farm is renowned for their commitment to environmental well-being and sustainable agriculture. The flowers are grown with only organic certified fertilizers and their pest control is managed through organic certified plant and fungal derivatives or with beneficial insects. 3 Porch Farm flowers are chilled and processed in facilities that are powered with over 150 solar panels and as of Spring of 2021\, the farm now provides carbon neutral shipping on all products by purchasing Carbon Offsets through Pachama. Furthermore\, 3 Porch Farm uses paper tape\, recyclable boxes\, post consumer paper packaging\, paper towels instead of sponges\, and plant based plastic baggies to keep stems wet. All of which can be composted or recycled. Even our shipping labels and stickers are compostable and printed with soy-based inks. \nZoom instructions will be emailed to members on the day of the event. All Ask an Expert Webinars are recorded. \n\nSponsored by:
