Join Richard Roberts, the Director of MGA’s Heritage Seed Restoration Project, for a free educational workshop on planting winter grains. Attendees will have the opportunity to see small-scale cultivation equipment in use and discuss strategies for overwintering small grains in Maine –– including soil fertility management, understory seeding for weed control, insulating your crops from frost-heave damage, and more!

NOTE: Planting dates are weather-dependent. We intend to host this workshop on September 10th but please keep an eye on your inbox in the days prior for any scheduling updates.
