Grand Tour Offered at the Rodale Institute
Rodale Institute’s annual Organic Field Day, held
from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., July 21, 2023, will provide the opportunity for
participants to interact one-on-one with Rodale Institute experts and learn
about the latest results of their farming trials. The Organic Field Day
includes nearly 20 demonstration stations on the 386-acre experimental
farm.
Stations will be set up throughout the farm and participants can either
walk through or enjoy a leisurely wagon ride from site-to-site. Demonstration
stations include organic farming systems, compost production, cover crops,
apple orchards, pastured hogs, industrial hemp, beekeeping, vegetable and grain
production, medicinal plants and more.
A new addition this year will be an exhibitor area
with more than 20 booths of partners and friends sharing relevant information
about their work, new programs and opportunities.
Cost: $25/person. Preregistration is required. Online registration
closes at 2 p.m. the day prior to the event. Veterans may be eligible to attend
for free. Email [email protected] for details. Location: 611
Siegfriedale Rd., Kutztown. Pack a lunch or buy onsite. For more information, call
