On-Farm Workshop, Roots Farm, Tiverton

March 30 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Greenhouse Moving Workshop at Roots Farm in Tiverton, RI
Optimizing Space and Time with Moveable High Tunnels
Date: Sunday March 30th at 2-4pm
Join seasoned year-round farmers Mike & Kelli Roberts for a hands-on workshop on optimizing moveable high tunnels for year-round growing.  The workshop will include discussion on planting dates, varieties, and other season extension tips they’ve learned from growing over 16 winter seasons with moveable tunnels.  Participants will also have the option to assist in moving one of their 30’x48′ high tunnels from its winter to spring plot by assisting with unanchoring and re-anchoring ground posts, and using electric winches to pull the high tunnel to its new position.
Participation is optional.
Social hour after the workshop, light potluck-style snacks.
