"This event was originally scheduled for April 16. The date has been updated to May 20.

Join #MOFGA’s Crop Specialist, Caleb Goossen, for a discussion on #organic management of common pests in the #VegetableGarden. Caleb will start by sharing strategies used to minimize the presence of pests from the outset using cultural practices such as promoting the presence of '#beneficials'. But sometimes pests show up anyway, despite our best efforts or during particularly challenging growing seasons. So, Caleb will also discuss what can be done when pests emerge."
