South Willamette Valley Growing Farms Workshop Series

This seven week course is designed to provide beginning specialty crop and livestock farmers with the tools and knowledge to manage both the biological and financial risks of farming.  Participants will assess their farm enterprise and gain the ability to develop a whole farm plan. This program targets farmers in their first 5 years of their farm business.  Please contact us to see if this class is appropriate for you.

A mix of faculty, experienced farmers, and professionals will present curriculum and resources vital to a sustainable small specialty crop or livestock farm.  The workshop series is sponsored by the OSU Extension Small Farms Program with funding from the USDA Risk Management Agency.

This course will be limited to 30 participants. Due to the limited class size, you will receive personal confirmation from Melissa Fery or Garry Stephenson.  If you have questions, please call (541) 766-3553.
