CANCECLLED: Weed Management Part 2 Workshop

Date: 
Tuesday, July 12, 2016 - 4:00pm to 6:00pm
Location: 
New Entry Incubator Farm @ Smith-Healy Farm, 300 Jones Ave, Dracut, MA 01826

Update as of 6/7/16: This workshop has been canceled; apologies for any inconvenience!

This is another round of weed management and mulching. If you missed the first class, or if you are finding yourself literally lost in the weeds--this is for you.  We will hopefully spend some of our time lending a hand in each other’s fields, doing some weeding, identifying common weeds and talking about best practices for dealing with what happens when weeds get out of control!

This workshop is part of New Entry Sustainable Farming Project's Spring/Summer Field Workshop Series. Participants in the New Entry Farmer Training Program and all Farm Business Planning Class graduates and the general public are welcome to attend our bi-monthly Field Training Series. These on-farm workshops focus on building practical skills on topics including organic agricultural production and marketing, food and farm safety, greenhouse management, small equipment use and maintenance, pest management, irrigation, and soil and water conservation and provide the practical field component of our farmer training program.
