SUMMARY:Regenerative Strategies for Avocadoes\, Citrus\, and Strawberries
DESCRIPTION:Regenerative Strategies for Avocadoes\, Citrus\, and Strawberries – May4th will focus on citrus and May 11th on avocados https://www.eco-farm.org/regenerative-avocados-citrus-and-strawberries-conference \nThis two-day gathering\, presented in partnership with EcoFarm\, brings farmers\, scientists\, and community partners together to explore agriculture as a living ecology — where certified organic practice\, regenerative outcomes\, Indigenous stewardship\, and the careful tending of water meet in relationship. Together\, we will address the questions that sit at the edge of the future: how to remain viable\, how to steward water wisely\, how to support labor\, and how to sustain farms across generations. In looking forward\, we also look back — recognizing that many of the resilience practices needed today are rooted in the wisdom of those who have long worked in balance with the land. \nCertified organic provides a trusted\, regulated foundation for responsible production. Regenerative agriculture builds upon that foundation by focusing on outcomes: healthier soils\, improved water retention\, stronger ecosystems\, and greater adaptability in times of uncertainty. True sustainability must also include the human dimensions of agriculture — fair labor\, steady cash flow\, and the ability to endure through long economic and environmental cycles. The resilience practices of the past\, from Indigenous land stewardship to multigenerational farming knowledge\, offer guidance for navigating what lies ahead. \nThrough field days\, panels\, and dialogue grounded in practice\, participants will explore how water\, soil\, labor\, markets\, and certification systems function together within a dynamic ecology. The aim is to create space for honest questions about the future while learning from the adaptive strategies that have carried farming communities through change before. \nMay 4th will focus on Avocados and Citrus and May 11th will focus on Strawberries. Registration is $75 for one day or $140 for both days\,\nwith lunch included each day.

SUMMARY:Regenerative Labels\, Real Impact: Building Credible\, Resilient Supply Chains
DESCRIPTION:Register HERE\n\nFriends of the Earth webinar tailored to food manufacturers\, retailers\, and distributors navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of regenerative food labeling. Drawing on a new analysis from Friends of the Earth\, this session will examine how regenerative certification programs can serve as powerful tools for advancing supply chain goals — from reducing pesticide use to strengthening climate resilience and protecting biodiversity. We’ll explore how different labeling approaches can help companies meet distinct business objectives\, whether responding to consumer demand for cleaner products or engaging a broader network of farmers in continuous improvement. At the same time\, the discussion will underscore that not all programs are created equal. Structural integrity — grounded in credible standards\, third-party verification\, and traceability — is essential to ensuring that regenerative claims deliver real impact and maintain consumer trust. Attendees will leave with practical insights to evaluate labeling programs\, align sourcing strategies with sustainability commitments\, and make informed decisions in a crowded and competitive marketplace. \n\n\n\n\nKendra Klein\, PhD \nDeputy Director of Science·Friends of the Earth \n\nKendra Klein\, PhD is Deputy Director of Science at Friends of the Earth where she leads research and campaigns on food\, farming\, and public health. She previously worked at Physicians for Social Responsibility\, Health Care Without Harm\, and Breast Cancer Action. Kendra is a Switzer Environmental Fellow\, and has written for The Nation\, The Guardian\, Civil Eats and Food Tank. She holds a BA from Miami University of Ohio and a PhD in Environmental Science\, Policy & Management from UC Berkeley. \n\n\n\n\n\nCharlotte Vallayes \nPrincipal·Vallaeys Consulting \n\nCharlotte Vallaeys is Founder and Principal of Vallaeys Consulting\, where she advises organizations working to advance more sustainable\, transparent\, and accountable food systems.

SUMMARY:Regenerative Food Labels: What’s Behind the Claim?
DESCRIPTION:Join Friends of the Earth for a critical conversation on the rise of “regenerative” food labels—and what they mean for the future of our food system. Grounded in new analysis from Friends of the Earth\, this webinar will expose how a patchwork of inconsistent standards is risking consumer trust and allowing harmful practices\, including the use of toxic pesticides\, to persist under the guise of sustainability. This briefing is designed for allies and funders committed to advancing a truly regenerative and just food system. We’ll highlight why strong\, enforceable standards—like organic and those that build on it—remain essential for protecting human health\, biodiversity\, and climate stability. We will also explore the broader policy gaps driving the proliferation of weak labels\, and where strategic investment and advocacy are needed to ensure integrity\, accountability\, and real transformation across the marketplace. If you’re working to shift food systems toward equity\, transparency\, and ecological resilience\, this webinar will offer key insights and opportunities for impact. \nhttps://foe-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_IiANPh60R_aDYY_mQEgQrQ#/registration

SUMMARY:From the Vineyard to the Future of Organic Farming
DESCRIPTION:From the Vineyard to the Future of Organic Farming\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganic winegrowing in Napa Valley is evolving\, shaping how vineyards respond to environmental pressures\, market realities\, and long-term stewardship of the land. \nIn 2026\, NVG introduces a new format designed to bring growers closer to the work itself. The program unfolds over the month of July through a series of in-field demonstrations\, culminating in a focused half-day conference. \nEach Wednesday morning\, growers step into working vineyards across Napa Valley to see organic farming in practice. From soil health and pest management to biodiversity and vineyard resilience\, these sessions connect real-time decisions in the field with long-term vineyard performance. \nThe series concludes on July 29 at The Culinary Institute of America at Copia with a half-day conference bringing these insights together.\n\n\n\n\nOrganic in Action: ​Napa Valley Field Days\n1 CE Credit per Field Day\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nJuly 8 – Baldacci Family Vineyards – Soil Fertility\nJoin us for an interactive field day focused on soil fertility in organic vineyards\, led by Garrett Buckland of Premiere Viticulture and Michael Baldacci of Baldacci Family Vineyards.\nYou’ll explore how organic fertility programs can improve vine health\, support soil biology\, and build resilience in the face of drought and changing climate conditions. Hear firsthand from growers and practitioners implementing these strategies in the vineyard and leave with insights you can apply to your own operation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nJuly 15 – Quintessa – Beneficial Insects & Pest Management\nVineyard manager Martin Galvan and winemaker Rebekah Wineburg walk through the practical foundations of IPM in an organic setting at Quintessa\, from identifying vineyard pests and beneficial insects to the monitoring techniques that inform decision-making throughout the season.\nAlongside Houston Wilson\, Assoc.
