Please join Nick Rowley for a spring farm and garden series focused on vegetable production, with topics relevant to both home gardeners and 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

Learn how to grow your best tomatoes yet. This session covers everything from seed starting through harvest, including variety selection, pruning techniques, and identifying common tomato leaf diseases. Participants will also learn how to identify and manage common tomato pests.<\/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":"
