Vegetable growers and CSA managers are moving away from herbicides for a variety of reasons: cost, results and feasibility. That's why Sam Oschwald Tilton helps growers statewide transition to mechanical weed prevention and other methods. And while it sounds labor intensive, there are methods that don't require a lot of bodies, which is important when labor is such a valuable commodity these days. Oschwald Tilton is a direct market specialist with the Division of Extension. He's also affiliated with FairShare CSA Coalition.
