Bessemer showed up. 🚜

Growers and community members packed the room in Jefferson County for our August workshop — hands on real specimens and field guides, real questions about pests, weeds, and what's happening in their fields right now, and the kind of cross-generational conversation you can't schedule.

Thank you to the team and to everyone who came out.

More programs coming this fall. Follow along, or reach us at 2563725413 or [email protected] to get on the list.
