Introduction to JADAM Farming
Friday, August 16, 2024 · noon–1:30 pm
VSU Randolph Farm Pavilion, 4415 River Road, Petersburg, VA
Organic farming can be expensive. The fertilizers and pesticides required to improve crop health for bountiful harvests can add up quickly. What if there was a way to create your own products from the waste and excess that you have around your farm or property? This workshop will introduce you to JADAM farming techniques. These procedures utilize organic and natural inputs around your immediate area to create natural fertilizers and pesticides.
Space is limited to 30 participants.
