SUMMARY:Silvopasture Forest Conversion Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, June 3\, 2026\, 9:00 AM – 3:30 PM in Acra\, NY \nSilvopasture is an Agroforestry Practice of integrating trees\, forage\, and rotationally grazed livestock into one system. This can involve planting trees in pasture\, or thinning trees in the woods and establishing grasses. \nJoin Cornell Cooperative Extension Columbia-Greene\, Ulster County educators\, along with forester Jeff Jourdain\, for a full day of Converting Forest to Silvopasture at the Agroforestry Resource Center. The workshop will have a Forest to Silvopasture focus and topics to be discussed include: planning\, equipment\, follow-through\, and economics to thinning your woods. In the afternoon\, we plan to head across the street to Siuslaw Model Forest\, where we can identify and discuss site selection and assessment. Along the way\, educators will discuss managing livestock\, species selection\, benefits\, and what resources are available. This workshop is for farmers\, landowners\, and service providers who are practicing Silvopasture in the forest or are interested in applying or teaching these concepts.

SUMMARY:Shiitake Mushroom Log Yard Management Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we will cover the basics of shiitake mushroom log yard management in a natural woodland setting. These production techniques result in the best quality shiitake that can be produced. These principles can be applied to many other wood-decomposing mushrooms\, including Lion’s Mane and Oyster. Workshop objectives: \n\nDiscuss tree species selection\, sourcing supplies such as inoculum strain selection (sawdust spawn) and necessary tools\nIdentify the appropriate bolt species and size\nInoculate and shock logs to force fruit mushrooms (will be demonstrated)\nStack shiitake logs to optimize production\nHarvest mushrooms at appropriate growth stage\nGrade mushrooms maturity\, shape\, color\, and freedom from defects\n\nParticipants will have the opportunity to tour a working mushroom yard where you can see the principles of production in action. We will discuss the best management practices for outdoor cultivation of wood-decomposing mushrooms. This form of agriculture is perfect for anyone wanting to incorporate their woodlands into applied agroforestry.  \nEducators will discuss the finances behind natural log production\, and regulations on value-added products. CSFP mushroom specialist Connor Youngerman will speak on regulations for processing mushrooms into value-added products and share useful mushroom research results from across the industry.  \nWe will leave plenty of time for questions. Inoculated mushroom logs will be available to take home for the first 25 registrants (one log per household).  \nContact: Connor Youngerman (czy2@cornell.edu) with any questions.

SUMMARY:Cultivating a Farmer-Led Regional Agroforestry Transformation
DESCRIPTION:Join NOFA-VT\, along with NOFA-Mass\, CISA\, and others\, for a regional gathering of agroforestry farmers seeking to dive deeply into relationship-building\, regional connectivity\, and food systems transformation. \nOver two days and multiple shared meals\, agroforesters from across the Northeast will come together to learn from one another\, build connections and relationships across state lines\, and collectively visualize a regional agroforestry transformation. Together\, we’ll learn from innovative farms thinking outside the box to develop the regional capacity for viable tree crop economies and explore the potential these systems have to transform our agricultural landscapes and our food system\, all while supporting organic practices and boosting the health of the soil and of native pollinators. \nOur first afternoon will be held at Yellowbud Farm in Northfield\, MA\, where we will explore how the farm is reimagining the landscape of tree crop genetics and planting stock across the Northeast. The following morning\, we’ll reconvene at Carr’s Ciderhouse in Hadley\, MA\, for collaborative working sessions that focus on intentionally strengthening our regional agroforestry network. \nIn the afternoon\, we’ll tour Preservation Orchard and Meadowfed Lamb\, and travel to Big River Chestnuts in Sunderland\, MA\, where we will learn how these farmers are building functional value chains and ecological economies for specialty tree crops and are considering how to strategically build out the processing capacity\, genetic resources\, and equitable markets needed to move this movement forward. \nThis event is an opportunity for experienced tree-crop farmers and agroforestry practitioners to broaden and deepen their regional relationships\, acknowledge challenges\, dive deeply into collaborative problem-solving\, and exercise collective visioning around a regional food system transformation. \nAt this gathering\, we will:\n\nTour farms reimagining tree crop genetics\, marketing\, and processing in Western MA\nConnect with other agroforestry producers from across the Northeast\nEngage in collaborative working sessions geared toward strengthening regional connections and shared learning\nLearn about opportunities for expanding organic production and enhancing biodiversity health\nContribute to the long-term vision for a robust regional tree crop economy\n\nDate\, Time\, & Location:\nTuesday\, 6/23\, from 3:00 pm – 8:00 pm (including dinner) – Yellowbud Farm\nWednesday\, 6/24\, from 8:00 am – 8:00 pm (including dinner) – Carr’s Ciderhouse\, Meadowfed Lamb\, Big River Chestnuts \nPresenters:\n\nJesse Marksohn – Yellowbud Farm\nJono Neiger – Big River Chestnuts\nMatt Kaminsky – Meadowfed Lamb / Preservation Orchards\nJonathan Carr and Nicole Blum – Carr’s Ciderhouse\nKeynote speakers\n\nElspeth Hay\, author of Feed Us with Trees\, in conversation with Russell Wallack of Breadtree Farms.\n\n\n\n  \nRegistration details:\nAttending the farm tours and working sessions is free for farmers\, thanks to the USDA Transition to Organic Partnership Program.

SUMMARY:Air Pruned Raised Beds for Tree Seedling Production
DESCRIPTION:Join the Cornell Small Farms Program for a hands-on workshop introducing Air Pruned Raised Beds (APRBs) from construction to implementation. This session will cover APRB design\, build\, materials\, growing media\, seed sourcing and storage\, and how to implement tree propagation as an enterprise for your farm. This growing technique is scalable\, modular\, and can be done in urban and rural settings with modest start up and input costs. \nThe first 20 registrants will be afforded the option to take an air pruned raised bed home. Dimention considerations for transport are 2′ wide x 4′ long x 3′ tall. \nParticipation is limited\, so register now! \nHosted by Cornell Small Farms Program’s Farm Ops and Agroforestry projects.
