Come Celebrate the Beginning of Something Transformative.

Together with our partners at Bohlin Cywinski Jackson and Alvin H. Butz Inc., Rodale Institute invites you to join us for the groundbreaking of the Center for Regenerative Organic Innovation – a transformative restoration of our historic Siegfried Barn that will expand education, collaboration, and farmer support.

For nearly 80 years, Rodale Institute has advanced the science and practice of regenerative organic agriculture. On July 17 we invite you to join us as we break ground on a new chapter in that legacy – one that will expand our ability to support and equip farmers with the research, education and consulting support needed to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead.

This groundbreaking ceremony marks the beginning of a transformative investment in the future of regenerative organic agriculture. Through the urgently needed modernization of our historic 1819 Siegfried Barn, Rodale Institute will create a dynamic center for education, innovation and collaboration – expanding our capacity to train farmers, convene leaders, advance research, and inspire the next generation of changemakers.
