Sowing the Future of Organic Wheat Research in the Northeast

NOFA-NY’s first On-Farm Field Day event celebrates the past, present and future of organic wheat improvement in the Northeast. Researchers will summarize a decade of variety trial results from the field, bakery, mill and taste buds. After touring Cornell’s organic wheat breeding nurseries, participants will help set needs and priorities for future small grain improvement in the region. The event will include tastings of varietal-specific products made by local bakers, chefs and brewers. Registration is $15 per attendee. Funding provided by USDA Organic Research and Extension grant #2011-51300-30697 and co-sponsored by NOFA-NY.
