Two recipients of the East Central Chapter Scholarship will speak about how they used their scholarship funds and what they learned.

Stacie Mix of Gray Duck Farms attended The Fall Biodynamic Intensive at The Josephine Porter Institute For Applied Bio-Dynamics in Floyd, VA where she was immersed in learning about Bio-Dynamic farming and how to make the preparations. Stacie looks forward to sharing what she learned and how she plans on incorporating these new techniques into their farm.

Trista Boe of The Salty Hen Farm attended The Aurora Blue Hide Tanning Class in Oxford, OH where she spent a hands on weekend learning every step of the basic egg and brain sheepskin tanning process. Trista plans to use these new skills in the future by providing workshops and services for local producers to help them add more value to their livestock programs.
