Tired of Financial Uncertainty on Your Farm? The “Grow Your Green – Farm Profitability” workshop is designed to empower direct-to-market farmers like you to confidently manage your financial landscape. Over three hours, we’ll demystify farm accounting, showing you how to correctly categorize income and expenses for Schedule F. You’ll receive both digital and printed workbooks packed with templates and real-world examples. Understand why strong financial records are the key to unlocking vital resources like loans, grants, and Micro Farm Revenue Insurance. Gain the clarity to identify your most profitable crops and make strategic decisions that save you time, money, and stress. This workshop is for all direct-to-market farmers, regardless of your current record-keeping methods. Bring your spouse, partner, or family and come prepared with your laptop or iPad to begin setting up your financial tracking. Prefer a hands-on approach? We’ll also have hard copy templates available. Food and beverages will be available to purchase at Three Sons Seltzer. Pre-registration is requested, though walkups are welcome. Registration is free for members of SFA and 10 for nonmembers. Members, please log in first to see the discounted price.
