  • Grazing Innovation – Adapting low overhead grazing in the Northeast 
  • Building a Regional Value-Added Dairy Training Center
  • Policy Roundtable: What’s driving dairy policy and growth in the Northeast

Along with engaging workshops, attendees will have time to network, ask questions, and offer insights toward what’s working and what’s needed to innovate and strengthen the dairy sector.
