Specialty Crops Using High Tunnels

Thursday, April 20, 2023 · 6–7 pm

Unionville, Virginia


Michael Carter Jr. of Africulture and Carter Farms will demonstrate various specialty crops you can grow and cultivate in high tunnels and potential markets for the crops. With high-tunnel greenhouses you can have a year-round shelter for all of your gardening needs. High tunnels increase growth time and crop production.
