After a long, busy summer, the Growers and Producers Forum meetings have resumed their schedule for the year and into next year.
As in previous months, we’ll be hosting a number of different guests and topics centered around our local food system and the agriculture community.
The next Growers and Producers Forum is this week on Thursday, Oct. 16, with a discussion on the topic of soil health. This subject has been receiving some attention as of late, as we realize how important soil health is to not only our ecosystem, but also to our own physical health.
We will discuss ways to not only improve soil health and quality, but also how to sustain it throughout the growing season and future seasons. This information is vital for backyard gardeners and larger-scale growers alike.
Please join our team on Thursday, Oct. 16, from 4 to 5:30 p.m., at the Community United Methodist Church on Lewis Street. Feel free to bring a water bottle and a light snack.
These Growers and Producers Forum meetings will continue to be held every other month up to May of 2026. We will post upcoming events, times and locations on the Healthy Archuleta website, as well as our social media pages and local publications.
