The [Hudson Valley] Farm Hub Partners with the Land Institute to Grow Kernza
The Hudson Valley Farm Hub is pleased to announce a partnership with The Land Institute, a Kansas-based non-profit dedicated to researching sustainable agriculture. The Land Institute’s development of Kernza, a distant cousin to agricultural wheat, could have a significant ecological impact. “It’s an exciting time for the Farm Hub to be involved,” says Elizabeth Haucke, president of Plovgh, an agriculture coordinator group working with the Farm Hub on behalf of the Land Institute. “Farm Hub is part of network of farms across the country growing and providing feedback on Kernza.”
