Are you interested in growing strawberries? Would this crop work well on your land? Would strawberries give a bump to your bottom line? This workshop is designed to help people who are interested in strawberry production as a home project or commercial enterprise.

Topics including basic site requirements, site preparation, production systems, plant selection, care of young plants, nutrient management and pest management will be presented by Dr. David Handley, Vegetable and Small Fruit Specialist with the UMaine Cooperative Extension.

This program was made possible through a partnership between the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, the Maine Coast Heritage Trust and the Knox-Lincoln Soil and Water Conservation District.

Registration is through UMaine Cooperative Extension. Fee is $20 per individual.
