Spring-2023-SFQ-cover

The Cornell Small Farms Program is pleased to announce the arrival of the Spring 2023 edition of the Small Farms Quarterly.

In this issue, we feature a decision-making framework to support farmer stress management, part-two of a beginning farmer’s story on establishing an on-farm market, and reduced tillage tools to help reduce your soil’s weed seedbank.

You can read articles from the Spring 2023 Quarterly online now. Or if you’d rather flip through the articles in a magazine format, take a look at our online reader to peruse this issue or feel free to download the PDF version of the Quarterly.
