ACORN invites all Addison County food growers to join us at one of four regional meetings. ACORN will share information about emerging market opportunities, workshops, and gauge interest in scaling up production. The two-hour meeting will provide an opportunity for you to network as well as to talk about the challenges and opportunities your business faces, how ACORN might best support your work in the upcoming year, and potential opportunities for collaboration with other growers. Bring a notebook, ideas, suggestions and questions!

The grower meeting schedule is as follows:

Wednesday, Jan. 13 - KB Café, Kennedy Brothers Building, 11 Main Street, Vergennes, 9am-11am
Wednesday, Jan. 20 - Tandem Market, 26 Main Street, Bristol, 9am-11am
Thursday, Jan. 28 - Platt Memorial Library, 279 Main Street, Shoreham, 9am-11am
Thursday, Feb. 4 - UVM Extension, 23 Pond Lane, Suite 300, Middlebury, 9am-11am

All Addison County growers are invited and encouraged to attend the meeting that best fits their schedule and location. ACORN will provide time for socializing, as well as light refreshments, thanks to the generous sponsorship of the Middlebury Natural Foods Co-op.

Please RSVP to Lindsey@acornvt.org.

We hope to see you at one of the meetings!
