From the "things that come in on Tuesday afternoons and take place this week" file:
Orange County Cooperative Extension and Economic Development will host an open house for the farm enterprise incubator, Plant@Breeze, from 4 to 6 p.m. Thursday, June 4. The W.C. Breeze Family Farm Extension & Research Center is located at 4909 Walnut Grove Church Road in Hurdle Mills.
This is the second year for The People Learning Agriculture Now for
Tomorrow (PLANT) program, a farm enterprise incubator for the Piedmont
Region. The program helps to introduce apprentice farmers to the basic
how-to's of small scale, sustainable vegetable and fruit production.
Those attending can learn about this innovative effort to grow new farmers in the Piedmont, take a tour of the production area and meet aspiring farmers.
For more information contact the Orange County Cooperative Extension
Office at 245-2050 or visit www.orangecountyfarms.org.
