Septic Smart, Salmon-Safe Farming & Whole Farm Planning — WSU Extension’s Fall Lineup in Mason County
Description
WSU Extension’s Tessa Halloran joins Jeff to cover three timely topics for Mason County: (1) Septic Smart maintenance and the Oct 23 workshop in Hoodsport, (2) “Cultivating Coexistence: Farming for Salmon Health” at the Salmon Center on Oct 21, and (3) the statewide online Whole Farm Planning course (Sep 22–Nov 3) with flexible, recorded sessions and optional field trips. We dig into real costs, DIY maintenance eligibility, salmon-safe practices, manure management, how certifications help farmers reach values-aligned customers, scholarships, certificates of completion, and how WSU Extension makes it all accessible. Plus: Master Gardeners at OysterFest and youth MG opportunities on deck.
