67-670 Kuemanu Street,Waialua HI 96791

26 April, 2021

Description

Learn how the 3C's can be incorporated into your farm operation while balancing environmental, plant-soil, and human health. Join Oahu RC&D and CTAHR on April 26th @4-630pm at GoFarm Waialua to learn how the 3C's can be incorporated into your farm operation while balancing environmental, plant-soil, and human health. Food safety manages biological, chemical, and physical contaminants to keep foods safe for consumers, but some practices can conflict with conservation goals. Co-management aims to prioritize both natural resource conservation and food safety via practices that manage farms and their surrounding environments to achieve both goals. Composting is a great amendment to build soil and plant health, and can also be a great teaching tool to learn about food safety. Registration closes April 22nd. Hope to see you on the 26th! Space is limited.  Please register to save your seat. Property access and parking instructions will be provided with your event registration.  FAQs What should I bring into the event?
