Introduction to Tractors and Implement

At this field day at Hope Organics, we will hear from two farm owners on how they use different tractors and implements on their farms for specific tasks to increase efficiencies. Tou Vang, Hope Organics owner and operator, will show us the tractors and implements he uses on his farm and talk about the benefits and challenges he has experienced using them in his production. Pete Skold from Waxwing Farm, will speak from his 17 years of vegetable production experience on where he finds the most benefit from tractor and implement use, as well as what he has considered when making tractor and equipment purchases. A light meal will be offered at the end of the field day.
