Join us Tuesday, November 19 (6-8pm) at the Sedalia Center for our final RootStock potluck of 2019. These monthly gatherings are a great way to network with other farmers, new agrarians, homesteaders, organic gardeners, and local food lovers in the the greater Lynchburg region who are interested in sustainable agriculture and developing our regional foodshed.
We are honored to have local apple cultivator John Hoskins who is well versed in all things apples. He will be discussing apple orchard design options for the home or farm, apple variety selection, and will be answering questions about starting and maintaining a healthy apple orchard.
Don’t miss our last RootStock potluck of the year!
