Did your garden do well this year, and you are thinking about selling at the farmer’s market next year? Do you have dreams of self-sufficiency and living off the land? Are you a budding entrepreneur?

If any of these apply to you, come to the FREE Explore Farming Class at UNL Extension office in Lancaster County on Saturday, December 3, 2011 at 10 AM. This two hour seminar will help you think through the resources, skills, and time you will need to launch a successful farm. Local farmers and participants in the Growing Farmers Training Program will be on hand to answer questions. Information about and applications for the Community CROPS Winter Workshop Series will also be available.

Participants should register in advance to reserve a spot. To register, send your name and phone number to warren@communitycrops.org or call Warren at (402) 474-9802.

“We were able to get our ideas off the ground by attending the classes, and it helped us put steps in motion to save the family farm,” said one participant from the 2010 workshops.
