Project Description: 

Beginning in 2010, project participants at the Universities of Massachusetts and New Hampshire Extensions, along with two local food organizations, Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture (CISA) in western MA and Seacoast Eat Local (SEL) in eastern NH conducted research trials, and collaborated with winter vegetable producers throughout New England on methods for production, storage, and marketing to strengthen this aspect of the regional food system. The project was officially completed in 2014, but winter vegetable production and storage continue to be topics of interest for the UMass Vegetable Program, and a Winter Production page has been developed on our website to continue providing up to date information to growers.

Timeframe: 2010 - 2014

Funded by: Northeast Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education
