Farming with natural inputs can be challenging. From pest control to fertilizing, this workshop will take the mystery out of this approach to agriculture. We will also explore basic startup concepts. Mr. Patrick Johnson of Nanih Farm will lead the workshop. He is an organic farmer with many years of experience in the production of organic fruits and vegetables.
