A half-day, interactive workshop, where participants will have the opportunity to meet experienced sustainable farmers, Farm Beginnings graduates, and talk with other prospective farmers. You will learn about different successful farm enterprises, and be able to ask questions about the genesis and development of farm businesses. The day will cover resource assessment, goal-setting, financial planning, marketing options, and finding land and equipment. “Is Entrepreneurial Farming for YOU?” will help you learn what it takes to start and manage your own farm-based business, and decide whether this is the path you are ready to take.
