Northeast’s urban farm included in Agronomy Day stops

Most landowners do research before purchasing farm ground.

It helps them to know what the land can produce and whether it will be safe for animals or humans to consume the produce.

That same principle applies to urban agriculture – albeit on a much smaller scale. During a recent Agronomy Day at Northeast Community College, one of the seven sites for students to visit was the Northeast Urban Farm, and one of the topics covered was learning about the history of the land.
