Growing organically or thinking about making the transition? Ready to scale up or find new market outlets? If you answered yes to any of these\, this is the room you’ve been waiting for. \nOne night to close the gap between what Virginia farms grow and what local buyers need. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to get your vegetables or grain into a distillery\, mill\, grocery store\, or regional supply chain\, bring your questions and come get the answers straight from the source. \nThe evening kicks off with a buyer panel featuring grain buyers from the distillery and milling world alongside diversified vegetable buyers from grocery\, food hubs\, and wholesale. Panelists include Evrim Dogu\, Sub Rosa Bakery and Shelley Sackier\, Reservoir Distillery and the Virginia Heritage Grain Project (BOD of Common Grain Alliance). They’ll share what they’re looking for\, what it takes to sell into their operations\, and how to get started. Then the floor opens up\, and the real work begins\, meeting them face to face. \nOur local farms are providing us with the products we need for good food and good drinks\, so come hungry\, come thirsty\, and come ready to talk and connect. \nAll farmers are welcome. Organic focus. Real conversations. No pitch decks are required. \nThe panel tells you what it takes. The mixer is where it happens. \nPresented by Shalom Farms · Virginia Association for Biological Farming · Rodale Institute · Common Grain Alliance \nDetails\nDate: Monday\, April 27 · 5:30–8:30 PM \nLocation:\nStudio Two Three\, 109 W 15th St\, Richmond\, VA 23224 \nCost: FREE \nRegistration \n Learn More and Register Today \n \nThank you to Shalom Farms for hosting and co-organizing this event.

Condor Farms is a 10-acre\, veteran owner\, diversified farm in Central Maryland\, raising fine wool sheep\, hazelnuts\, and cut-flowers. Owner Sabina grazes 15 sheep across 2.5 acres of pasture and within her 1.5-acre hazelnut orchard. She has planted 104 hazelnut trees (five varieties) and collaborates with Rodale’s Perennial Systems Scientist to track Japanese beetle pressure and identify the most resilient cultivars. Her goals include eventually selling her Maryland-grown\, organic hazelnuts and processing them for a Maryland-grown hazelnut spread. \nSabina also manages three acres as cut flowers and founded the Central Maryland Flower Collective\, a network of specialty cut flower farms that work together to bring locally grown blooms to customers across Maryland and the D.C. region. This cooperative has proven profitable in its first year and serves as a successful example of shared capacity and collaboration. \nNow\, coming into her third season\, Sabina’s farm emphasizes dual-purpose design on limited acreage. Her remaining acres are focused on soil building primarily using cover crops. \nCome learn about the possibilities of on small\, diversified farms!

They require energy and nutrients to grow. As they mature\, they become sources\, producing carbohydrates through photosynthesis and supporting the rest of the plant. Modern agriculture operates as a sink\, dependent on continuous external inputs such as water\, fertilizers\, energy\, and plastic to maintain productivity. Future agriculture operates as a source\, a source of clean water\, stable soils\, local food security\, and economic durability for the communities around it. \nHealthy soils increase water infiltration rather than generating runoff. Rain moves through biologically active soil layers\, where it is filtered and gradually returned to local aquifers\, supporting regional groundwater recharge. Carbon captured through photosynthesis is stabilized in the soil\, improving structure\, moderating field temperatures\, and reducing erosion risk. Hedgerows support pollinators\, birds\, and beneficial insects while also encouraging natural predators that help regulate rodent populations and reduce reliance on chemical control. By reinforcing these processes\, agriculture contributes directly to water quality\, production stability\, and local economic continuity. \nThis Field Day examines that transition. We will take a critical look at plastic mulch\, widely used in both conventional and organic systems\, and present research on high-residue cover crops and reduced tillage as biologically driven alternatives. This is not about eliminating a material. It is about redesigning how the system functions.

Join us for an in-depth discussion of an updated “Advancing Regional Organic Markets: A Farmer’s Toolkit”\, a resource designed to strengthen regional organic economies.
