Subject: [FH-CASA Vegetables Interest Group] FH-CASA Field Day: Diversified Vegetable Production in Unheated High Tunnel

April 4, 2013


Diversified Vegetable Production in Unheated High Tunnel

Thursday, April 4, 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm
Calvert's Gift Farm - 16813 Yeoho Road, Sparks, MD 21152
Future Harvest CASA Members - $10; Nonmembers - $20

Jack and Beckie Gurley of Calvert Gift Farm have 17 years of
experience growing certified organic vegetables. They have used
unheated high tunnels for 12 years to extend their growing season,
taking weather out of the equation in early spring and allowing them
to offer a fuller CSA box  and have a greater variety of vegetables at
farmers markets at the beginning of the season. Using three high
tunnels, the largest of which is 96' x 30', the Gurleys conservatively
estimate they have seen a bottom-line boost of some $10k per year.

The farm tour and discussion will cover topics including soil,
irrigation, temperature, crop selection, high tunnel rotations,
harvest methods and overall production techniques.
