On March 24, join us for a panel discussion on the latest technology for farmers both to use on the farm and to connect with their consumers. As this session introduces attendees to tools, techniques and trends to build an online presence, we'll post those resources here after the 4th Annual Farm to Market Connection. Tara Collins, Communications Director at the Watershed Agricultural Council, moderates the expert panel including:
- Marjorie McCord, Marketing and Social Media Consultant
- Julia Reischel, Watershed Post
- Mel Weiss, Stone Barns Center, Virtual Grange
Remember, connecting with your audience revolves around content, authenticity and consistency. Share yourself with your consumers, supporters and members, be a thought leader and source of information, and keep the conversation going!
