Getting into Farmers Markets Workshop

Today was the Getting into Farmers Market workshop in Grande Prairie.  It had been re-scheduled from an earlier date and this one was better for us anyway as we both got to attend.

It was a day long seminar with a lot of great info on what you need to do to start selling food products at Farmers Markets in Alberta.  Besides all of the great info we learned we met some wonderful people.

The managers of the Rycroft Farmers Market were there and we look forward to going to their market in the future.  We also go to meet Kreg from Broken Tine Orchard.  We have been following his story on his haskap berries for a while so it was nice to put a face to the facebook page.

If you are considering selling at Farmers Markets this workshop is a definite plus. This was a first for them but they do plan on more in the future.  You can get more info at http://www.albertamarkets.com.
