"Is Entrepreneurial Farming For You?” Workshops
Have you ever dreamed of starting your own farm business? “Is Entrepreneurial Farming
For You?” (IEFFY) is a four-hour, interactive workshop designed to help you learn
what it takes to do just that!
Participants in IEFFY workshops will have the opportunity to meet experienced sustainable
farmers as well as other prospective farmers. They will learn about different successful
farm enterprises, and be able to ask questions about the genesis and development
of farm businesses. The workshop will cover resource assessment, goal-setting, financial
planning and marketing options. IEFFY 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.
