Climate Adaptation Planning is a useful tool to assess risks and identify strategies to increase resilience and mitigate the impacts of climate change. This session will discuss the process of climate adaptation planning with a focus on the impacts of flooding and high precipitation conditions, and we’ll hear from a farmer who will share their experience working through this process and how it has informed their thinking.

This spring NOFA-VT and MOFGA are hosting a 3-part series of farmer climate forums focused on flooding, excess precipitation, and farm resilience. The series starts next Thursday (3/13) with a farmer panel exploring flooding and adaptation. Session two (3/27) covers New England climate trends and soil hydrology. And the final forum (4/10) is a conversation around climate adaptation planning for flooding and high precipitation. The forums are virtual, free to attend, and hopefully are a nice opportunity to learn from your peers and take steps toward growing our shared agricultural resilience here in New England.
