Happy to sponsor this VBSR panel and networking!
A strong local farm and food sector isn’t just about farmers – it’s about restaurants, grocers, distributors, tourism and manufacturing.
Join VBSR and Intervale Center to connect with friends and colleagues and hear from a panel of experts as we discuss trends and predictions for the future of Vermont’s food and farm economy.
Where has the food and farm economy been and where are we headed? We’ll learn about current trends from some of Vermont’s foremost food system leaders and press them for their predictions on what’s next to come.
Delicious drinks, networking, shared learning and a great opportunity to catch up with colleagues, make new connections, gain new ideas and inspiration, and have some fun!
