Sponsorship opportunities
We’re less than a month away from our 2022 Perennial Farm Gathering and we want you to be a part of it! From December 7-9, farmers, landowners, researchers, and decision makers interested in perennial agriculture will come together to connect, share their knowledge, and build their skills. This is the only event in the Midwest of its kind, and has become a vital platform for transforming agriculture in our region and bringing hope to the climate crisis.
At the Savanna Institute, we know sponsorships aren’t just a creative way of giving to a good cause – they need to make sense for your bottom line. With new tier options this year that leverage our virtual format and social media communities, we’re confident sponsorship will put your business front and center of a diverse audience of decision makers. Our virtual attendees span the United States and beyond, which means your advertising will, too! We’re also excited to offer promotion across our social media channels; mailing lists; and our new podcast and blog, Perennial AF.
In addition to the benefits listed above, sponsorship of the Perennial Farm Gathering and the Savanna Institute, signals to your audience and ours that you’re committed to transformational solutions to the most pressing crises of our time. Are you ready to be a part of it?
