The dates for this year’s training are December 3 and December 4th, from 1-4 p.m. each day. We’ll be meeting via Zoom.
FEATURING
We’re featuring speakers from NC State, UTK, and UK, with topics ranging from environmental monitoring and LED lighting to herb and microgreen production. We’ll also hear the latest in biological pest management.
