Potato Production and Dealing with Colorado Potato Beetle

August 18 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Free

One of the strategies for avoiding Colorado potato beetles is to plant your crop early. Another strategy is to plant your crop late. Which potato planting timing is right for you and your farm?

Join Everett Ottinger of Nettie Fox Farm and MOFGA’s Organic Crop Specialist Caleb Goossen for a walk through of an on-farm participatory action research comparison of two different planting times. Hear about Everett’s two years of experience comparing the two planting dates, the most impactful pros and cons noticed at Nettie Fox Farm, and at many other participating farms in Maine and Vermont.
