Farm to Market Conference

Building upon the success of the 2010 Farm to Market Connection, with over 150 in attendance, each of the day’s workshops will feature local farmers, regional buyers and agricultural advocates.  Planned workshops will address increasing sales success at farmers’ markets, production of local grain and flour, connecting with community groups through buying clubs, whole carcass marketing of local meat and recent policy developments related to regional food infrastructure. Full conference details are available at purecatskills.com.  Register online; cost is $25 before March 22nd.  Early registration is strongly encouraged as the event regularly sells out.  For more information or to register, visit purecatskills.com or contact Challey Comer at ccomer@nycwatershed.org or (607) 865-7090.
