Beginning Farmer Workshop

If you’re interested in eating fresh 365 days a year + selling the extra, this workshop is for you.

Host Austin Lamac is a PA National Guard veteran and hobby farmer scaling up.  He and his family supplement their income with diversified sales of fruit, vegetables, eggs, pumpkins and firewood from their 10 acre property. Austin and our guest presenters will share lessons learned and information for new farmers to get started on the right foot.

What attendees will see and learn about:

Gracedale Farm's high tunnels, outdoor garden, and chickens.

How to learn from mistakes to build a better farm operation.

Pumpkins for profit
