Vacuum Seeder Boosts Farm Productivity

During the 2019 growing season, more than 38,500 vegetable and fruit transplants were grown for the Marion Polk Food Share Youth Farm and community gardens network. Thanks to a grant from the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund, the seeding process was simplified. Funds from the Siletz Tribe were used to purchase a vacuum seeder, ventilation and watering equipment that will serve the Youth Farm for years to come.
