10:00 AM to 1:00 PM

 

We invite folks to an important information sharing opportunity at the Mendota, CA farm of Gary and Mari Martin on Friday, September 13^th at 10:00 AM.

Work that is being done at their farm on soil health and climate-smart agriculture will be highlighted and discussed.

Information will be presented on the impacts of soil health management and opportunities for reducing GHG emissions.

A new farmer network aimed at providing opportunities for cotton farmers to share information on alternative crop production practices will also be explored.

Lunch will be provided and you'll have a good opportunity to learn and become better aware of locally-derived information on soil care and practices aimed at decreasing emissions.

Further information is available by calling or emailing Jeff Mitchell at (559) 303-9689 or jpmitchell@ucdavis.edu
