Are You Interested in Starting a Farm? or Adding to an Existing Farm?

Extension Agents always have clients ask them, “I have some land that I want to do something with. Tell me what I can do to make money.” This is a hard question to answer because there are so many things that one must consider. If you are considering starting a farming operation and are not sure where to begin, this Beginner Farmer Online Series is just for you.

This four-part series will cover topics on what can be grown, where’s the money, where and how to sell your product, and who can help. The purpose of this workshop is to help those interested in beginning a small farm who have little to no experience and would like a general overview of how to get started.

Sessions will be held weekly at 10 a.m. beginning May 13. There is no registration fee, but registration is required. You can register for one or all of the workshops. Click the link for each session below to register.

• May 13 – What Can I Grow?
• May 20 –Where’s the Money?
• May 27 – Where & How am I Going to Sell It?
• June 3 –Who Can Help Me?
