ABOUT THE EVENT

Live Webinar with Broadview 

April 29th at 12:00 PM EST

Join us for a webinar with Broadview Federal Credit Union as we dive into their initiative in community support and sustainable agriculture.

Having recently acquired four Freight Farms, Broadview is utilizing one farm for their operations, and the remaining three they've generously donated to local nonprofit organizations. These organizations, motivated by various reasons, have collectively sparked a transformative movement. 

During this webinar, we'll discuss:

  • Broadview's planning journey and how they turned their Freight Farm aspirations into reality.
  • How each nonprofit organization is incorporating their farm into the organization while benefiting their community. 
  • Insights from Broadview on the lessons and experiences they've learned along the way.
  • Plus, we'll hear from Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York on how they're using their Freight Farm for their organization and community! 

You’ll walk away from this webinar with valuable insights and actionable ideas on how you can use a Freight Farm to make a meaningful impact in your own community.
