Nov

2018
Fri 9:45 AM to 11:00 AM

Could your farm do double duty to offer a venue for weddings, birthday parties, reunions, a barn dance, petting zoo, high tunnel greens in the winter months, a summer camp, a location for a vintage car show, or a location for a craft bazaar? Could doing so cover the equipment and insurance payments in the down season? Farmers will learn how to maximize partnerships and build relationships within their respective communities while utilizing existing resources to grow their businesses in this seminar.
