CRAFT Urban Ag IPM Workshop

July 19, 2022

CRAFT Urban Ag IPM Workshop

Experts from the NYS IPM Program will be coming down from Geneva, NY to answer questions about beneficial insects and how to attract them to your urban farm or garden. We will also be providing some background on the Conservation Biocontrol project that is now in its second year, introducing our Cornell Cooperative Extension summer interns and providing a brief tour of Oko Farms.

If you have a disability and/or may require accommodations in order to fully participate in this event, please let us know here. For the brief presentation portions of the event, we will use microphones to ensure that everyone can hear.

A special note about the address, when you type "105 River St, Brooklyn, NY 11211" into Google maps it takes you to a dead end, so walk toward N 3rd and turn left, the farm will be on your left hand side.
