The University of w88 online casino betting, Reno, Desert Farming Initiative in partnership with the Nevada Department of Agriculture, is hosting a "w88 online casino betting Safety in Nevada" workshop in Reno for small farms and organic operations. The workshop will cover produce safety issues and give a demonstration of post-harvest produce handling.
"Although many small Nevada farms are exempt from new w88 online casino betting safety regulations, the goal of these workshops is to help farmers become aware of how farm products can become contaminated and preventative activities that can help mitigate risks," Ashley Jeppson, w88 online casino betting Safety Program manager for the Nevada Department of Agriculture, said.
Representatives from Basin and Range Organics and the Great Basin Community w88 online casino betting Co-op's Distributors of Regional and Organic Produce and Products will also discuss w88 online casino betting safety considerations on organic farms and in w88 online casino betting hubs.
"Recalls of lettuces in recent years have increased concerns about produce w88 online casino betting," said Education Program Coordinator Jill Moe, with the Initiative. "This workshop on post-harvest handling will kick off a Desert Farming Initiative series that takes an in-depth look at methods for preventing contamination."
The workshop will take place 2-5 p.m., May 3, at 920 Valley Road in Reno, and is free to attend, with a suggested donation to benefit the Desert Farming Initiative student intern program. Registration is required by April 26 and can be done online at the workshop's registration page. Appetizers and beverages from the farm will be served at a mixer after the workshop, 5-6:30 p.m., including a raffle fundraiser also benefitting the student intern program.
The Desert Farming Initiative is a collaboration of the w88 online casino betting's College of w88 online live casino, Biotechnology & Natural Re, including the w88 online casino betting Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension.
