About the Workshop:
The traditional fresh produce season for market gardeners in the colder parts of North America begins in June and ends in September. In defiance of long, cold Maine winters, Eliot Coleman, a leader in American organic vegetable production and market grower for over 35 years, has been developing an environmentally sound, resource efficient, and economically viable system for extending fresh vegetable production into "the other eight months.” Eliot is the author of “The Four Season Harvest” and “The New Organic Grower” two popular, and useful resources for every organic grower.
This workshop will cover techniques for year round greenhouse production of organic vegetables in cold weather climates.
