For over half a century, farmers have used plasticulture for increased crop yields, soil moisture retention, improved weed control, and to lengthen the growing season without using a greenhouse. This workshop will teach you the basics of plastic-laying equipment, various irrigation and plastic products available to the industry, and the unique method of planting developed by Creekmore’s Place called “2-10-T.” There will be a short farm tour, followed by a plastic-laying demonstration. Afterwards there will be a short beekeeping talk and a honey, jelly and jam tasting.
