This free workshop is supported by a California Department of Food & Agriculture (CDFA) Specialty Crop Block Grant to help promote environmentally sustainable farming methods. Spanish translation is available.

This half day course will cover how to manage greenhouse and small scale production facilities, with an emphasis on how to optimize environmental conditions to meet crop needs, design systems and production efficiencies that can strengthen crop quality, while reducing time spent growing seedlings. We will also discuss soils and fertility inputs for seedling production and how to approach pest and disease management in the greenhouse setting to grow resilient seedlings.
