Extension to offer
new farmer course
NORRISTOWN - How
much money does it take to
gei into fanning? Which
crops can you grow on a
given piece of land? Do you
have enough land for dairy

or goats be a profitable
enterprise?

starting your own fanning
operation, these questions
may have crossed your
mind. Now a special short
course has been planned for
individuals who have an
interest in getting into
fanning but who lack the
practical experience.
Specialists from Penn State
Extension Service and New
Bolton Center will cover the
basic steps in animal and
crop production as well as
the economic aspects of
acquiring land, taxation, and
budgeting a farm business.
The one-day program will
be held Saturday, October
25,1980, at the University of
Pennsylvania's New Bolton
Center near Kennett Square.
