Rehabbing Ag Land After Hurricane Helene Workshop on April 24th!

Join Watauga County Cooperative Extension and Extension specialists from NC State as we work together to navigate the new landscape Helene brought our ag land on Thursday, April 24th. This event will begin at 3:30pm and finish up around 6:15pm with the option to stay for supper and mingle with presenters (sponsored by NC Farm Bureau). Please register for this FREE event at go.ncsu.edu/helenerehab

We plan to cover a variety of topics in depth, including:
  • Soil test results from across WNC following the storm
  • Navigating heavy erosion and sediment deposition and rock management
  • Getting impacted acres back into production (primarily pasture/hay/silage production, but there will be useful information for all sectors of agriculture)
  • Rebuilding systems to be more tolerant of extreme weather events
  • ....and more!
As always, please contact our office with any questions. We hope to see you there!
