Indian Line Farm: Opening Meeting, Season Extension and Infrastructure

Calling all farm workers, farm apprentices, and agri-curious people! Western Mass/Hudson Valley CRAFT (Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training) invites you to their 2024 season of on-farm workshops. Come see a new farm, learn new skills, meet other people interested in farming, and socialize. These visits are open to all! 

The first workshop is at Indian Line Farm in Great Barrington, Monday April 15, 4-6 PM with a social potluck at 6 PM. All farm visits are on Mondays. See a full schedule of all nine events here.

Indian Line Farm grows approximately 5 acres of vegetables for our CSA, one market and a few stores and restaurants. We sell year round. We utilize 3- 30×96 greenhouses to produce heat loving crops early and to achieve winter/late fall/spring production of various greens, radishes, cilantro, scallions and carrots. The tour will include a basic introduction to the farm, greenhouse management and scheduling, grafting tomatoes, and soil health under plastic. We will also take a look at our new 8′ deer exclusion fence and the economics of that investment. As this will be the first visit of the season we will also do introductions and orient all apprentices to the CRAFT program as a whole. Click here for more information.
