SUMMARY:SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES With JUSTEN DICK
DESCRIPTION:Integrating operations is key to incremental success in farming. Farms aren’t about single product lines\, but about how you can design your operations to support each other and build your assets (and soils) for the long haul. Shift away from extractive farming methods and focus on long-term success.  \n\n\n\nAt Kelly Ridge\, Justen will discuss their experience (both successes and failures) with building synergy in farm operations. Topics under discussion will include livestock (pigs\, sheep\, horses\, chickens)\, alternative feeds\, composting\, pasture maintenance\, kid rearing\, specialty crops (such as hops)\, integrated processing services\, fertigation\, and more. \n\n\n\nThe cost is $10/class or $50/all 8 classes. It is available for free to military veterans\, but also available for free to anyone interested in trading the cost for 8 volunteer hours. \n\n\n\nYou can register here.

SUMMARY:Beekeeping with Steve Payne and Chad Overhold
DESCRIPTION:Begin in the Farm Clubhouse\, where Steve and Chad will describe how to start your own apiary and then move to the apiary and open a hive (extra protective suits are available). The hope is to convince participants that this is hard\, interesting\, lots of fun\, and well worth doing. \n\n\n\nYou will learn about how to connect with other beekeepers\, learn more\, and develop a support team. Steve’s beekeeper and good friend\, Chad\, will assist him. “He knows a lot more than I do\,” says Steve. If you are interested in starting your own hive\, Chad and Steve will gladly assist; however\, you will need to wait until next spring\, when they typically start new hives. \n\n\n\nThe cost is $10/class or $50/all 8 classes. It is available for free to military veterans\, but also available for free to anyone interested in trading the cost for 8 volunteer hours. \n\n\n\nClick here to register.
