Zoom Webinar
Overcoming barriers of volume, variety, quality, delivery, insurance and food safety certification are all challenges farmers face in scaling up to sell to institutional buyers. This webinar is part I of a two-part series about “Expanding Sales to Institutions” in which we will focus on what small to mid-size farms should consider in order to access institutional retail markets such as restaurants, hospitals, local grocers, and food hubs.
SCG will be joined by industry experts MU Extension Horticulture Field Specialist, Patrick Byers, and Jennifer Hashley, Director of the New Entry Sustainable Farming Project in Boston, MA.
