2) Compost, Vermicompost & Compost Tea: Feeding the Soil on the Organic
Farm.

(NOTE: Other, future topics in series will be: marketing & community
relations, egg and meat production, seed production & saving, and milk &
dairy products. Manuals on weed management, soil fertility management,
whole farm planning, and crop health are already published or in
production.)

Applicant must have strong organic farming background, writing
experience and research skills and success meeting deadlines.

First-draft manuscripts for this round due Aug. 20. Final draft due
mid-November. Pay vicinity of $1,500 per manual.

The deadline for applications is March 15. We will hire by March 20.
