| Description: |
High tunnels are basically unheated greenhouses used to provide a shelter over fruit or vegetable production. A high tunnel lengthens the growing season of crops and protects the crops from rain, wind, disease, etc. High tunnels require additional management compared to conventional plantings but can be very beneficial for commercial growers. Topics to be discussed at this meeting include construction ideas, high tunnel management, plant selection, insect management, fertility, irrigation, and more. To sign-up or for more information, contact the Talladega County Extension office at 256-362-6187. Seating is limited so you must call the Talladega County Extension Office at 256-362-6187 by May 22nd to reserve your spot. Extension Vegetable Specialist Dr. Ayanava Majumdar and Extension Agent Chip East will conduct the meeting. |
