Building Resilience on Maritime Farms (Postponed)

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED

A free follow up workshop by the Climate Change Adaptation Collaborative to its November 2021 conference (click here to see recording)  

Learn about the Environmental Farm Plan and how it can help the agricultural community adapt to climate change.
 
The Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) is designed to help farmers create a practical plan that encompasses environmental sustainability while also meeting the farmers economic and social needs. Addressing climate change is being incorporated within the plan. A national program, the EFP is delivered by NGOs across the country.  In New Brunswick, the Agricultural Alliance of NB helps deliver the program and members of both the Agricultural Alliance of NB and The National Farmers Union of NB have to join the program.
 
This workshop aims to:

  • provide a beginner guide to the EFP process: learn what it is, and how one gets implemented

  • create opportunity to ask more nuanced and/or technical questions about the EFP 

  • bring farmers together with ENGOs to see where partnerships can be formed around the Environmental Farm Plan.
