Gaining Ground is a non-profit, no-till and regenerative farm that has been helping reduce food insecurity for Massachusetts families for over 30 years. Their mission is to “provide free, sustainably grown, fresh organic produce to people experiencing food insecurity”. In 2020, they produced 127,000 pounds of food that was distributed and donated to over 15 local hunger relief organizations. The New England RCA is providing a unique opportunity to learn about no-till farming for 1 CE credit, an included lunch, and then a 2-hour volunteer session on the farm. More information about Gaining Ground and their mission can be found on their website: https://gainingground.org/.  Educational Session/CE Credit: You will learn about regenerative farming from Mark Congdon Director of Agriculture and Volunteer Experience. Mark will share the story of the farm and a deeper look into the regenerative farming process and the communities the farm supports!
