Creating Space with Greenhouse Automation
Join Guillaume Lambert, an expert in greenhouse optimization, and Luke Sheldrick from Terramor Farm, as they delve into how greenhouse automation can enhance profitability for small-scale farms in 2024 by creating more operational space for farmers.
This webinar will open the door to the real advantages and challenges of such systems as represented by an Ontario farmer as well as ORISHA. It can be easy to dismiss automation as something only possible for large-scale businesses, but thinking this way might be stopping you from accessing a worthwhile tool for operating your business better.

Using the Lean System to Earn a Comfortable Living on a Farm
In this workshop, Ben Hartman, author of The Lean Farm, will explain concepts from the Japanese-based lean system that he and his wife Rachel use to earn a living on 1/3 acre of land. Specific topics covered will include: using 5S to organize a farm, how to precisely identify value, the 7 mudas (wastes), and kaizen (continuous improvement). Ben will offer concrete tips that farms of any size and type can start applying right away. Lean is a production system that originated in Japanese production and is now widely used in all types of industries.
