Cover Cropping on Diversified Small Farm Production Systems (Terrebonne, OR)

Join us on March 26th from 10 am - 3 pm at Sungrounded Farm for a Women for the Land Learning Circle, offered in partnership with the High Desert Food & Farm Alliance and American Farmland Trust in Terrebonne, Oregon.

This hands-on, peer learning gathering is designed for women and non-binary farmers and farm workers who want to deepen their knowledge, build community, and share practical strategies for cover cropping success in Central Oregon's high desert climate.

Together, we'll explore how to integrate cover cropping into high-intensity, diversified small-farm systems with a focus on arid climates. Farmers Ashley and Caleb will share their experience developing a cover cropping system that boosts organic matter, suppresses weeds, reduces tillage, and strengthens soil biology on their certified organic farm. See their methods in action and connect with other growers prioritizing soil health while managing tight cropping rotations in sandy soils.

This event is free to attend, but registration is required. A catered lunch will be provided.

Physical address: 211 NE Wilcox Ave, Terrebonne, OR 97760

This event is intended for Women and Non-binary farmers and farmworkers, as part of the United Nations International Year of the Woman Farmer, also observed by Oregon Department of Agriculture in 2026.
