Last call to be in the next Farm to Food Resource Guide.  Many thanks to those who have already responded.  Don’t miss out on this FREE marketing opportunity for your farm and farm business.  Questionnaires due by April 20.

In partnership with Tanner Health System, we are excited to share with you our plans to develop our 3rd edition of the Farm and Food Resource Guide.  More and more consumers are looking to find and purchase locally grown food and products.  A farm guide is one tool that farmers can use to help market their farm business.

We are now looking for farmers in Carroll, Haralson and Heard Counties who are interested in promoting their farm and products.  This guide will be geared towards any farmer who wants to promote what they are growing and selling.  Products can include fruits, vegetables, meats, hay, breeding stock, cheese, corn maze, farm tours, etc.  If you want the customer to find you then you need to be included in the farm guide.

The information you provide on the questionnaire will be included in the guide, which will be distributed at local farmers’ markets, restaurants, Chamber of Commerce, UGA Extension County office, and Tanner Health System.  Tanner will also post the guide on their website as well.

If you would like to be included in the free guide, please complete the attached questionnaire and return to me by April 20.   Many thanks to Get Healthy, Live Well and Tanner Health System who will be designing and printing copies of the next edition.
