Creating Impact Together

Additionally, we invite you to partner in experimental field plots.

Avena is seeding experimental field plots of high protein oats, high protein chickpeas, regenerative agriculture farming practices, including intercropping, cover cropping and pollination strips, and several standard varieties of oats, beans, chickpeas, lentils and peas.

Partners will have brand visibility at CAFAD, including a company flag at the experimental field plots and a tabletop at the event tent. Plot partners are encouraged to attend CAFAD.

Contact us to learn more about being an experimental field plot partner.
