• Feb. 9 and Feb 16: Basics of light, water fertility, media as they relate to pest management
• Feb. 23: Vegetable crop production in greenhouses and high tunnels
• March 2: Disease management in greenhouses and high tunnels
• March 9: Insect management in greenhouses and high tunnels
• March 16: Weed management in greenhouses and high tunnels, especially in winter production
• March 23: How to write/use an IPM plan

All webinars will be delivered via Zoom and recorded for those who cannot attend in person. During the week of April 24  a training session will be held in Geneva to follow up on these webinars.
