High Tunnel Pilot Project Available in Limited Area

High Tunnel Pilot Project Available in Limited Area

Utah NRCS is taking signups until February 19, 2010 for a new cost share program that uses high tunnel, or hoop houses, to modify the growing climate and allow producers to grow vegetables, berries, etc., where they otherwise may not. The Utah pilot is available this year to producers in the Great Salt Lake RC&D Council area (Salt Lake, Davis, Weber, Tooele, and Morgan counties), and Utah Tribal lands. Selected applicants receive financial help to erect manufactured high tunnels and in turn agree to help evaluate their effectiveness in the Utah climate.
