The 2024 WV Forest Farming Forum will address a variety of forest farming topics, including opportunities for generating agricultural income while conserving and rejuvenating forested land through the cultivation of medicinal herbs, mushrooms, and maple syrup. Tour the Yew Mountain Center’s forest farm and learn about mini-grants and technical assistance available to get you started or to expand a forest farm.

Yew Mountain Center 9494 Lobelia Rd. Hillsboro, WV

The WVFFI works to make learning opportunities accessible for all, regardless of ability to pay. The true cost of this field day is more than $110 per person, but because of grants and donations, we can offer it to participants for a lot less. We offer you a sliding scale pricing menu to help sustain our initiative. You can help grow our community by paying a registration fee that supports our scholarship fund, pay our base registration fee to cover the essentials, or contact us for a scholarship. This fee includes all instruction, lunch, and dinner.Any option you choose, our forests and families win when we come together to learn and grow! 

Sustaining Rate $50

Essential Costs $35

I will apply for a full or partial scholarship $0
