Also speaking will be Crystal Stewart, an Extension Vegetable Specialist for Eastern NY Commercial Horticulture Program. Topics will include reducing tillage, soil compaction, cover cropping, and tarping techniques for mixed vegetable operations. There will also be a soil health demonstration and a group panel to discuss other strategies for improving agricultural soils. A guided tour will be provided by Grindstone Farm, a certified organic fruit and vegetable farm.

There will be plenty of time for questions and networking. The cost is $10 per person, which includes a light dinner. Registration is required, reserve your spot here.
