Are you looking for or have a value-added business idea for your farm? Not sure how to make your idea a reality? Don't miss this one-day workshop for farm and rural entrepreneurs in which we cover three modules: selecting your best idea; assessing your idea’s business potential: and next steps. Benefits of participating in this workshop include:
