SUMMARY:AGROFORESTRY FARM SERIES: ALLEY CROPPING AT ASD'S NEW BRISTOL CAMPUS
DESCRIPTION:The farm tour of ASD’s alley-cropping site is a great opportunity to witness a young system that’s already producing in a big way.  This system\, implemented in early 2024\, is already producing woody cut florals\, dahlia tubers\, cut flower stems\, and coppiced willow stems for weaving and conservation plantings.  We’ll spend the morning on a walkabout of the site with live Q&A and time to network.   \n\n\n\nAfter lunch\, we’ll head over to a new silvopasture site in Bristol\, VA\, to see a transitional alley-cropping-to-silvopasture installation.  This site was designed for diversified\, multi-story production\, and integrates hazelnuts\, hardwoods\, and Virginia Pines with hair sheep\, to support both ecosystem and animal health. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required. Click here to register.

SUMMARY:Grow Your Own Intermediate Class: Food Safety
DESCRIPTION:This course will teach the practices that ensure the food you grow and harvest is safe to eat and free from harmful pathogens\, contaminants\, and toxins. Since food is grown in the soil and exposed to the environment\, it’s important to take steps to prevent contamination from sources like pests\, diseases\, improper handling\, and environmental factors. \n\n\n\nThis class is virtual and will be held through Zoom. \n\n\n\nYou can register here.
