Join Jerry Iles, OSU Extension Educator, and farmers Josh and Lynne Schultz of Schultz Valley Farms for a tour of this diversified family farm and to learn how they use high tunnels for season extension. The Shultz family grows greens, sweet corn, root vegetables, eggplant, melons, and other crops for market and restaurant sales and a successful community supported agriculture (CSA) program.
