Could you please submit this to Plants-all. May 2/2024 Hi Everyone, Land is available for research here at "The Point" but in order for a guarantee of usage a Land Request Form must be filled out and submitted for approval and determination of which Block would best suit your needs. I seed a Cover Crop wherever land is not pre-arranged for usage by filling out and submitting the necessary form above and sent to : Melvin Kaufman Mary Meleshko Ardelle Slama With the rain happening please take this time to fill out and submit this form ASAP so that when it dries up shortly, I can get started with the cover crop seeding! My wish is to accommodate your land needs, but I need to know quickly in spring everyone's needs as to not disappoint and cover crop your block of land. I am also in charge of submitting a Land Usage report to Amanda Smorhay for appropriate land charging as well and need accurate information from these filled out forms for area used. If anyone is unaware of this request and need please forward this to them for filling out purposes.
