Unfortunately we aren’t the only ones who find our crops tasty! There’s a whole world of insects and diseases that find our crops to be delicious or make a great home. This webinar provides a basic understanding of the role of insects in agriculture, and how to manage pests and diseases throughout the growing season.

Facilitator: Lisa Conroy, Farm Educator from Ignatius Farm.

This event is offered as part of the Ignatius Farm New Farmer Training Program. Educational content is geared toward new farmers, but is open to all farmers who might be curious about a certain topic, wishing to expand their farming knowledge, or in need of a refresh.

Anyone wishing to attend the full Term 1 can do so here. Registering for Term 1 does not require you to register for each individual session.

In order to make our training and community building events accessible to all farmers (and future farmers) in Ontario, the Ignatius New Farmer Training Program strives to cover registration fees for anyone facing financial barriers. Need assistance covering the registration fee? Let us know!
