There is limited parking in the parking lot and along Bing Court next to the farm house.  More parking is available on Elliot Ave (turn left off of Division St.).
Learn a refined crop planning and record keeping system, and general principles for creating your own systems. The crop planning system presented will let you plan out hundreds of separate plantings and keep track of all of them with minimal effort.  If you are a professional grower and you want to save time, improve harvests, and keep better records, this is the course for you.  If you are a serious gardener and want to grow as much food as possible, this is for you too.
The course will use Excel-style spread sheets extensively and also cover shortcuts and techniques for using spreadsheets more effectively and efficiently.  All of the basic concepts are equally applicable to those still using pencil and paper - although you may be converted.
Tickets are $30 each.
