Description: With new and beginning farmers, as well as seasoned farmers looking to convert from direct to consumer farm sales to wholesale, this is not a switch to be made overnight. What adjustments will be needed before selling to wholesale markets? What should be considered or evaluated before scaling up a farm business? How do you determine which wholesale buyer is right? How do you build a buyer relationship? This workshop will lay the groundwork and mindset needed to start developing your business plan for selling to wholesale markets.

February 6, 2020: 7-8:30 PM. Woodland Management: What is Right for You and Your Woodland?

February 13, 2020: 7-8:30 PM. Understanding the Financial Aspects of Woodland Management. This session provides an overview of financial factors that affect your woodland management such as when to re-plant, when to thin, when to harvest, when to use cost-share programs and more.

February 27, 2020: 7-8:30 PM. Launching your Woodland Legacy: Intact, In Forest and In Family Ownership.
