Extend Your Season!


Season Extension in the Midwest was created as a place for farmers to go and learn about the many new and exciting growing opportunities in season extension.

You will find everything from articles by the leading names in organics and high tunnel growers to the latest events, conferences and workshops along with pictures and stories about farmers who are currently using season extension in their growing operation.

If you have any resources, ideas, links or pictures to add and share, please do not hesitate to contact us at misamail@umn.edu

This website was made possible through funding from Sow the Seeds Fund in cooperation with Midwest Organic & Sustainable Education Service (MOSES) and Minnesota Institute for Sustainable Agriculture (MISA).
