In early June, FINE published a new research report that reveals farmer practices and attitudes about selling to institutions, based on our 2016 survey of 223 New England producers. Together, these farms had more than 15,000 acres in production in 2015. Small, medium and large farms are represented in the findings.
“Producer Perspectives: The New England Farm-to-Institution Market” presents in-depth findings and makes specific, data-driven recommendations for farmers, producer service providers, government officials, funders, and institutions.
Join us for this free webinar to learn more about the key findings of this study; hear from producers about their experience selling food to schools, colleges, and hospitals; and find out how you can apply this research to your world-changing work!
