  1. Small Farm Management College **Postponed until February 12th**

    Feb. 05, 2025

    Small Farm Management College Participants,

    Since ice is possible starting at about 5:00 p.m. today, February 5th, and we have people driving from more than one hour away, we are going to postpone tonight’s Small Farm Management College at Wilmington College for safety reasons. We believe it is important for attendees to participate in all sessions, and we know some may not attend due to potential challenging road conditions, so we will postpone and add another session at the end. Our first meeting will now be held on February 12th.
