This Agri-Smart workshop is geared toward helping farmers and ranchers think of new ways to make their farms, ranches, or gardens pay, and toward those interested in entering one of these fields. Who will benefit from this workshop? Anyone! From the owner of a working ranch looking to offer a cowboy experience, to someone who loves gardening and has a reputation for making outstanding jelly, the Agri-Smart workshop will provide valuable information for anyone interested in starting an alternative ag business.
There are many ways to expand agriculture-related businesses; it only takes a little creative thinking and networking with others with the same passion as you to develop a new idea. The goal of this workshop is to provide you with access to the resources you need to create, develop, and refine your dream of an agri-business venture. You will hear from experts who will share what they have learned through their personal experiences. There will also be experts present who will share information on resources that might be helpful for an Agritourism or alternative ag business.
