Apply now to join the 2025 Michigan State University (MSU) Organic Farmer Training Program (OFTP) to learn alongside urban farmers, homesteaders, farmworkers, educational gardeners and food system changemakers. The group meets on Mondays from February to November. Some days they dig in with hands-on farming with a Detroit group at Keep Growing Detroit and an East Lansing group at the MSU Student Organic Farm. Most days, both groups learn together during field trips to 20-plus farms, interactive online learning and shared on-farm days at each learning site.
To learn more, check out the recently updated OFTP website and the proposed schedule for 2025 or reach out to Katie Brandt at [email protected].
