Don't miss out on practical hands-on training the day after the ECHO International Agriculture Conference on the Research and Demonstration Farm. This year, ECHO North America is offering 3 different Post-Conference workshops: 

  1. Cultivate Abundance, Mision Peniel, & ECHO grow, collect, & share nutritious, culturally preferred food for the Immokalee farm worker community. Participants will visit Mision Peniel to see the garden and preparations that go into serving their community.
  2. The Propagation post-conference workshop will cover topics such as nursery management skills, creating potting mixes, & propagation methods (seed germination, cuttings, division, air layering & grafting). Participants will get hands-on experience grafting.
  3. Earthen construction holds many advantages over conventional building methods: fire resistance, temperature control, and minimal impact on the environment. A critical advantage is the low cost! This post-conference workshop will cover theory, design, and hands-on practice.

Transportation to/from Hotel and lunch are included.
