Transition to Organic With Diversity to Improve Soil Balance
Tour two on-farm research trials: Planting corn in 60-in. row-widths for cover crops and grazing sheep and spring-seeded cereal rye ahead of soybeans for weed control. Equipment used for field preparation and organic crop production will be available for viewing. Also learn about rotationally grazing sheep and cattle, how to make compost tea and check out a first year elderberry planting.
