workshops & events

Our Market Farming Workshops are open to the public, they cover a wide range of topic areas and are intended to benefit a variety of experience levels. 
​
Growing Growers apprentices receive free registration to all Workshops and Partner Events. 
​The Core Workshop Series covers the more foundational subjects of farming practices and is a part of the required curriculum for apprenticeship. The Advanced Series highlights more specialized information and activities which we update annually.
Virtual/ Hybrid format: We are conducting our same great classes on Zoom followed by in-person farm tours and live demonstrations. $10 per class. Registration will remain on our Eventbrite page.
