Bringing Farmers Together: Implementing a Peer-to-Peer Learning Network in the San Luis Valley
This project began in January 2024 with the goal of creating and facilitating a collaborative learning network of agricultural producers to develop ideas and implement methods to increase soil water holding capacity and improve irrigation efficiency. MHCD enlisted the help of three host producers/ranchers to host 6 small group sessions with their neighbors and peers. These small groups shared their ideas and projects with one another while discussing water and soil conservation in the Valley.
