"US (KS): Critical info, free equipment offered to fruit, veg growers through "From Tunnel to Table" program"
The polytunnel workshops offer both beginning and advanced information on vegetable and fruit production under plastic-covered structures, such as low and high tunnels, through expert presentations, exhibitors, educational materials, grower-to-grower information exchanges, and hands-on learning experiences.
The fall workshops will take place on three Sunday afternoons in Colby (Aug. 31), Winfield (Sept. 14), and in Clay Center (Oct. 5). Registration opens in late-July. All fall workshop participants will be eligible to apply to receive free low tunnel infrastructure for their farms, and low tunnel training will be part of these events. Women, minorities, and limited-resource farmers are encouraged to participate.
