Thursday, January 28, 2021 • 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Virtual Zoom Meeting
Demand for healthy local food is increasing in the Commonwealth. Of course, the difficulty of getting your local produce to customers has increased too. VSU Small Farm Outreach Program is working with Dr. Kim Hutchinson, President of the Virginia Farmers Market Association (VAFMA) to share various strategies and approaches to selling at farmers' markets throughout the region. This is a 4 workshop series focused on basic market preparedness, food safety, online/offline marketing, and online/virtual payment systems.
