We are glad to share that the Association for Temperate Agroforestry (AFTA) is officially reviving its signature newsletter, The Temperate Agroforester. Re-launching as a biannual publication, this newsletter serves as a vital peer-to-peer platform for practitioners, researchers, and professionals to exchange news and insights across the North American agroforestry landscape.
Share Your Story: Summer 2026 Edition
AFTA is currently seeking contributors for the upcoming summer issue. Whether you are managing a silvopasture pilot, conducting forest farming research, or implementing innovative alley cropping designs, they want to hear from you.
