Urban Farm Education Field Day hosted at the Ohio State Student Farm on September 24th, 2-5 pm
Cohosted by The Ohio State University’s Student Farm and Urban Ag. Team, the Urban Farm Education Field Day will offer demonstrations and presentations to support small-scale and urban farming. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from Ohio State University Extension professionals about a variety of topics, including the use of low tunnels for season extension & insect exclusion, high tunnel ventilation management, artificial intelligence-enabled robotic weeders for vegetable production, USDA funding to support urban high tunnels, and more. Program details below and in the attached file; growers, producers, farmers, students, extension educators, and community members are all welcome to join the event!
Attendance is free. Mark your calendars and register here by September 14th.
This event sounds like such a valuable resource, especially for small-scale and urban growers who are looking to level up. I love that they’re covering both practical tools like low tunnels and high tunnel ventilation, plus emerging tech like AI-enabled robotic weeders. And the fact it’s free makes it even more accessible. Definitely worth marking the calendar for anyone nearby! https://millimeters.net
