Transition to Organic Webinar Series for Crop Producers
Join us for a 10-week webinar series designed to help farmers transition to certified organic production. Each session is held weekly on Wednesdays, featuring a 75-minute presentation and discussion, followed by optional office hours for deeper conversation and one-on-one support.
This series is intended for farmers preparing to transition to organic certification, in the process of transitioning, or strengthening their organic management systems. Sessions will cover key aspects of the transition process—from certification requirements and recordkeeping to building soil health, pest management, and marketing organic products.
Presenters include UC ANR Farm Advisors, nonprofit agricultural professionals, organic inspectors, and experienced organic producers. Webinar recordings will be available on YouTube after the series. CCA and PCA Continuing Education Units have been applied for.
Each session will include Spanish and Hmong interpretation.
Cada taller incluirá interpretación simultánea al español.
Yog koj hais lus Hmoob, caw kog tuaj koom lub rooj cob qhia txog kev ua teb (thamabxaj) organic, peb txhais ua lus Hmoob thiab.
