CRAFT Tour: Designing Effective Volunteer Labor Strategies for Vegetable Production Systems
Do you work in agriculture with volunteers? Join us for a CRAFT Tour of the Dr. John Wilson Community Garden via the WNC-CRAFT farmer network. This tour is open to current and prospective CRAFT members!
We’ll tour the entire garden and focus on their Growing for Donation program, a no-till production vegetable operation. Learn how this program utilizes intern labor and volunteer groups to grow crops instead of mechanized equipment. The Growing for Donation program includes a partnership with Utopian Seed Project, and tends to a diversity of crops including vegetables, cut flowers, herbs and an orchard. Learn how this program drives grant funds which lead to useful infrastructure projects for the entire Community Garden.
