Join us for this annual Women in Ag Night <\/strong>organized by Sherburne County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) to celebrate the role of women in farming and farm-land stewardship<\/strong>!\u00a0Sarah will be presenting an hour-long talk as part of the evening.<\/p>\n

A Shared Harvest: Habitat to Nourish both People and Wildlife.<\/strong>\u00a0 Native flowering habitat supports bees, butterflies, and birds\u2014but it doesn’t stop there\u2013 these same plantings (and some of the weeds that invade them) can also provide amazing nutrition for you and your family. In this talk, we\u2019ll consider how thoughtful plant selection, habitat design, and ongoing management can create spaces on your farm that nourish wildlife and people alike. Sarah will talk us through some of the best edible plants available for conservation plantings and how to incorporate them into our diets in creative ways. She\u2019ll also cover important edible weeds that we can harvest for our own use during the process of caring for our habitat. Together, we\u2019ll adjust our thinking on pollinator habitat from something we simply set aside for nature, to an integrated part of a healthy, productive, and resilient food system for all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

BIO:<\/b> Sarah Foltz Jordan is a conservation biologist and foraging educator based in Duluth, MN. Through her pollinator work with the <\/span>Xerces Society<\/span><\/a>, she\u2019s worked with hundreds of farmers across the region to design, install, and maintain successful native habitat plantings. She recently launched the <\/span>Conservation Foraging Center<\/span><\/a>, an initiative to bring more attention to the critical connection between <\/span>giving stewardship<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>finding nourishment<\/span><\/i> in wild spaces. She\u2019s excited to return to her roots in the Anoka Sand Plains for this talk!<\/span><\/p>\n
