Please join Nick Rowley for a spring farm and garden series focused on vegetable production, with topics relevant to everyone from home gardeners to farmers. The series includes four sessions featuring a mix of classroom-style lectures and group discussion. Refreshments will be provided. You may register for one session or all four, and attendance is available either in person or virtually.<\/p>\n

This session will cover the basics of building a compost pile and how compost can be used as a valuable soil amendment for vegetable production.<\/p>\n

Registration is required, and each session is limited to 20 participants.<\/p>\n

In the event of inclement weather, sessions may be moved to a completely virtual format. Questions and accommodation needs can be directed to Nick Rowley, 207-778-4650 Nicholas.rowley@maine.edu<\/a>, and Julie Lajoie, 207-474-9622 julie.lajoie@maine.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
