GAP Training Starts Tonight!

Beginning tonight farmers participating with Pilot Mountain Pride will begin receiving training on Good Agricultural Practices (GAP). GAP is a collection of principles to apply for on-farm production and post-production processes, resulting in safe and healthy food and non-food agricultural products, while taking into account economical, social and environmental sustainability. GAP is a necessity when selling local produce to restaurants, grocers, and institutions in the greater Winston-Salem area.
