In this workshop Allen Philo and Tim Williams will be addressing crop rotations and cover cropping.  They will be emphasizing how crop rotations can be used to decrease disease and pest pressures, and how when used together with good cover cropping practices they can also lead to better soil structure and nutrient availability.  Participants are encouraged to bring their own crop rotations in for discussion and advice.
