The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Risk Management Agency is again partnering with Microfarm Sustainable in a program to train underserved agricultural producers.
Microfarm is seeking suggestions as to dates and locations in Oregon and Washington for its day-long off-site seminars. We would like a group of at least 20 people to justify travel expenses.
The main focus of these seminars will be year-round production of food crops in a hydropnic greenhouse using low-cost, low-tech methods. Although aimed at potential commercial growers, past seminars were attended by many who simply wanted fresh fruits and vegetables for their families. As in the past, participants will leave with a hydroponic kit to start their hands-on trainng and an invitation to visit our on-site greenhouse for additional hands-on training.
See our About Us page for more information on our Greenhouse Producion Program.
To let us know your suggestion for a date or location for these seminars, contact us at
For more information about these opportunities, please contact Microfarm at Info@MicrofarmSustainable.org or 1-503-868-7679.
