The Agroforestry Coalition is a national cross-sector network of advocates, agitators and innovators working to scale up agroforestry in the US. The Coalition is still emerging, but is currently organized around seven working groups, each working to address a particular barrier to scaling agroforestry. This video from Savanna Institute's 2023 Perennial Farm Gathering explores the initiatives arising from these seven working groups, hold space for questions about the Coalition in general, and lead participants through a mini reflection on how they talk about their agroforestry work publicly.
