Ohio State University Extension (OSU-E) has released two new collections of educational materials on high tunnels. Both collections — one an audio CD and the other a printed reference packet — stem from the university’s November 2006 high tunnel workshop, which featured nearly two dozen speakers and panelists from Ohio and the Midwest and Mideast. The CD features six hours of discussion on high-tunnel design, construction and management, including in organic systems. The speakers, all recorded at the workshop, include nine high-tunnel-using farmers, seven scientists and seven industry professionals: chefs, produce buyers, and market and auction managers. Audience questions and comments are included. The reference packet includes 71 pages of colour and black-and-white visuals and resource materials used by the speakers and panelists. The cost is $10 for the CD, $20 for the packet (discount available for orders of five or more), or $25 for both.
