KEENE, N.H. — Radically Rural is a new, annual, two-day summit (September 27-28, 2018) that will bring together radically rural ideas from around the country. Co-hosted by the Hannah Grimes Center for Entrepreneurship and The Keene Sentinel, the Summit will be held in Keene, NH and bring together people who are passionate about their rural communities and eager to help overcome and reverse some of the challenging trends facing them – including job, income and population losses.

Radically Rural features five program tracks – Entrepreneurship, Main Street, Arts & Culture, Rural Media, and Working Lands. To review the Summit’s full schedule, visit radicallyrural.org/program/schedule/

The Cheshire County Conservation District and the Monadnock Conservancy have partnered together to develop the Working Lands Program Track. This track offers participants an opportunity to learn about the importance of local forest and agricultural resources and discover all the ways in which these resources add value to the region.

The Working Lands Program Track will feature three dynamic and informative sessions:

The New England Food Vision. Molly Anderson, Professor of Food Studies, Middlebury College. Explore how New England can provide half of its food needs by the year 2060.

Changes on Tap: Challenges and Opportunities to Growing Rural Food Businesses. Richard Berkfield, Executive Director, Food Connects. Push the entrepreneurial envelope of exporting food and importing dollars to grow your region’s farm economy while remaining committed to the land and the community.

Live the New Forest Future. Rob Riley, President, Northern Forest Center. Consider the transformative potential of the Northeast’s most abundant natural resource – forests – and learn about trends, opportunities, and real-life stories of communities on the rise.

Please join us! Radically Rural will be held in Keene, NH, September 27-28, 2018. To learn more and register, visit www.RadicallyRural.org

The Cheshire County Conservation District promotes the conservation and responsible use of our natural and agricultural resources for the people of Cheshire County by providing technical, financial, and educational assistance. Our goal is to encourage the stewardship of healthy soils, productive ecologically sound farms, diverse wildlife, productive sustainable forests, healthy watersheds, and clean water to ensure those resources are available for future generations. Established in 1945, the Conservation District operates out of Walpole, NH where we work alongside the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and other conservation partners.
