NOFA-NY On-Farm Field Days
Season Extension - Stretching Tomato Season and Winter Greens
October 4, 2017
What do you need to do to stretch out your high tunnel tomato season or establish a profitable crop of winter greens? Meeting the full season's nutritional demands of tomatoes under organic management is challenging. Juggling diverse succession crops and keeping the tunnel profitable year round adds an extra level of difficulty. Mark Printz of Canticle Farm will share his experiences. NOFA-NY and the Cornell Vegetable Program will discuss what they are learning through the New York Farm Viability Institute funded initiative, "Best Management Practices for Long Term Profitable High Tunnel Soil Fertility and Health."
This event is produced by NOFA-NY with support from the New York Farm Viability Institute.
