The commission found that the farm’s soil testing may not provide enough information to evaluate conditions across the leased land; typical guidance discussed at the meeting would call for about one test per 5 to 10 acres. Cover crops were planted but had to be reseeded after problems with the seed. The commission is also pursuing solar assessments for town buildings, awaiting an energy-audit report, and will discuss ways to reduce bear access to trash.
