Join us for an afternoon in the orchard at Ignatius Farm.  During the spring tour, farm manager Lorne Jamieson introduced the practices employed in managing the organic orchard.

You are invited for this second tour of the orchard to see what concerns they have this year, how different varieties responded to their methods, and how grass/ground cover is managed.  Post harvest handling will also be discussed including sorting, selling, and processing.

Where: Guelph (Wellington County). Directions will be sent to those who register, closer to the tour date.

RSVP (required): admin@farmstart.ca or call Cherie Bauman (519) 836-7046 ext 103. Please bring cash or cheque (made out to FarmStart) on the day of your tour.
