Course for New Farmers to Begin (From Chapel Hill News)

EXCERPT: North Carolina Cooperative Extension’s Orange County Center and the Orange County Economic Development Commission announce the fourth annual PLANT (People Learning Agriculture Now for Tomorrow) Farm Incubator Workshop Series beginning Jan. 5, 2011. The workshop series was started as a result of the demand for more in-depth training for beginning farmers to serve the developing market for local food production in the Triangle. The three-hour workshops are held weekly for eight consecutive weeks in January and February.
