SUMMARY:Summer Field School '22 Class #2: Season Extension
DESCRIPTION:Join us at TNT Farm N Greenhouse for a class of Season Extension. Season extension provides early and late harvests\, winter harvests\, and longer harvest windows. These techniques also offer pest and disease control. These opportunities translate into more income. \n\n\n\nTNT began in 2012 as a greenhouse and vegetable farm selling retail at three farmers markets\, selling wholesale to Appalachian Harvest\, and peddling to local restaurants. From 2012-2015 TNT was USDA GAP certified and from 2012-2020 was USDA Certified Organic. In it’s beginning years\, TNT established itself at the Abingdon Farmers Market and with a couple restaurants. The 1 acre wholesale garden was eliminated in 2015. 2021 was a fallow year for TNT and in 2022\, now focuses on edible garden transplants\, perennial edibles\, and mostly heirloom fresh vegetables selling at the Abingdon Farmers Market and restaurants. TNT is 4000 sq ft greenhouse\, 3000 sq ft high tunnel tomatoes\, and a quarter acre garden. Practices on TNT are still in tune with Nature and food safety although I have chosen to no longer carry the USDA Organic or GAP certifications.  \n\n\n\n“Go for it! Season extension can be used in a number of different ways adding to the excitement of growing food. It’s easy to implement and provides nice returns\,” is advice to beginning farmers from Tamara of TNT.
