New Online Course: Growing Uncommon Fruit begins in February

Expand Your Knowledge of and Connection to Underutilized Fruit!

Do you want to learn more about lesser-known fruit? This course will help you determine whether incorporating uncommon fruit into your operation is the right decision for you. We’ll walk you through all aspects of this decision, from possible fruits and appropriate site selection to marketing and profit potential, plus the advantages to including woody perennials into your farm plan. Many of these fruits can be successful in a forest farming setting, so are attractive to people with an interest in agroforestry. Expand your understanding of these promising crops and how they could improve your farm’s ecosystem while possibly also supporting your bottom line.

Taught by ENYCHP Small Fruit Specialist Laura McDermott and HNY Small Fruit Specialist Anya Osatuke

In 2024, this course will be offered live for 6-weeks on Tuesdays from 6:30 – 8:00 PM (Eastern) from February 27 – April 2. Webinars will be recorded, and students will have access to the course materials indefinitely after enrolling.
