Direct Farm Marketing Conference

Come join us on Friday and Saturday February 23rd-24th for the annual Direct Farm Marketing Conference. The time has come to reconnect with our farm friends and build some new meaningful connections while we’re at it!

The 2024 conference is chock-full of fantastic learning opportunities, including discussions about mental health and climate change, workshops focusing on topics from fine tuning your wash and pack process to farm business planning, and our keynote speaker Sarah Mock, author of Big Team Farms: Growing Farms Differently. Stay tuned for the full program!

Conference attendees will have a chance to explore new marketing strategies, investigate emerging trends, and connect with other local producers. Additionally, the conference will provide attendees the opportunity to speak with our conference sponsors and tradeshow participants.
