University of Maine Cooperative Extension and the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry will host a twilight meeting online at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 12, to discuss best management practices for pick-your-own operations during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The discussion will highlight key considerations, including guidance from the Cornell Small Farms Program, toward keeping everyone safe while still allowing pick-your-own activities this year. Participant input is encouraged.
No registration is needed for this free webinar. More information about the event is available at extension.umaine.edu.

Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
