From Farm to Shelf: Integrating Organic Produce into the Supply Chain

  • This event has passed.

April 21 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Join us for a hands-on all day intensive that will guide growers through the essential steps to get organic products into local, regional, or national supply chains. It will provide practical tools, real world case studies, and networking opportunities to help move your organic produce from field to shelf.

What’s really happening in the organic produce market right now? Hear directly from buyers, farmers, and food hubs about emerging trends, pricing pressures, and new opportunities—followed by a farm tour of JSM Organics and time to connect over lunch and a closing mixer.

Buyers Panel – Organic Produce Market Trends
Organic produce buyers share insights from the front lines of the market—what’s selling, what’s slowing down, and what they see on the horizon for organic produce.

Farmer Panel – Farm-Level Pricing Pressures
Organic farmers discuss the pricing pressures they’re facing on the farm and how they’re adapting their production, marketing, and business strategies in a shifting market.

Food Hubs Panel – Expanding Market Opportunities
Food hub leaders share how they are expanding market opportunities for organic farmers and strengthening regional supply chains that connect farms with buyers. Featured panelists include Coastside Local Food Hub, FEED Sonoma, and Capay Valley Farm Shop.

*This event is FREE for Farmers
