Apologies for cross-posting.  We are trying to get the word out about this to everyone!

 

Got a hoophouse?

Been to a hoophouse workshop or training session?

 

We need YOUR feedback!

 

Please respond to a survey that will help us learn:

 

·        ***    How many and what types of high tunnels are used in Michigan?

·         ***  What issues have arisen from high tunnel use?

·        ***    What factors are preventing farmers from building high tunnels?

·        ***   What educational materials are needed to support effective and profitable high tunnel use by Michigan farmers?

 

If you own a high tunnel OR if you have participated in any of the Michigan high tunnel workshops or training sessions, please take this on-line survey now, during March 2011. It will take approximately 20-30 minutes.  The survey is available at:

Questions?  Please contact Kristin Getter ([log in to unmask]) with any questions you may have or to find out how to get a paper copy if you do not have Internet access.

 

Thanks in advance for your help with this effort.
