Workshop Reaches Out to Disadvantaged, Beginning Farmers

 
The Massachusetts Farm Service Agency, as part of their continuing outreach to socially disadvantaged and beginning farmers and growers, helped sponsor a workshop on the technical process of erecting a high tunnel greenhouse. About 75 people attended the day-long workshop, which also provided information on funding opportunities and a platform for the immigrant farmers of Flats Mentor Farm in Lancaster, Mass., to share their cultures with participants.
