Outcome: Initial Outcome
The bi-annual vegetable field day was held at a local farm that is active with the Boyd County Farmers Market and gardening community. This year the field day featured educational stations on mushrooms, garden insects, fruits, backyard poultry and poultry processing basics. Participants of this years field day reported that they really enjoyed the locally sourced meal and the knowledge they gained on how to increase their garden production as well as information on adding new products to their farms and gardens. At least one participant has enrolled in the Master Gardener program coming up in early 2019 and is looking forward to joining the Boyd County Farmers Market to hopefully offer more locally sourced products to the people of Boyd County.
