Drip Irrigation: In this workshop we will explore methods of crop irrigation, with a focus on automated drip irrigation. Installing drip irrigation on your farm can save you time, money and help to preserve our most valuable natural resource: water! We will cover materials required for setup, drip irrigation’s advantages and limitations, and ongoing checks and maintenance needed throughout the season.
