Join MU Extension Horticulture Field Specialist and Food Safety trainer Patrick Byers for a free, in-person training on “Seedling and Vegetative Propagation Techniques” at Amanda Belle’s Farm at CoxHealth.
Planting a seed is an easy process, but consistently producing quality seedlings is both a skill and an art. The workshop will focus on the basics of successful seedling production – selecting seedling growing media, selecting cell size, using soil blocking technology, managing germination, managing seedling problems, and growing seedlings utilizing the newly outfitted propagation house at Amanda Belle’s Farm.
No registration is necessary for this in person event, however selecting 'Going' on the Facebook event is helpful for planning purposes. Please be sure to bring a water bottle, comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, and bug repellent if you desire.
