Are
you a farmer who is already selling to institutions like schools, hospitals, and
colleges, or who hopes to? Did
you know that several hundred people will be gathering in Western Massachusetts
at UMass Amherst from April 7th-9th to talk about Farm to Institution efforts in
New England and New York? This first- year conference will feature 50+
sessions, inspiring speakers, local tours, good food, live music, an exhibitor
fair and more. The participants and presenters include food service directors,
students, faculty, sustainability coordinators, farmers, distributors, nonprofit

perspective, and meet potential buyers!
The

Cross-Sector Day - with sessions focusing on employment law, food safety, and
sales contracts that will be brought to you by UMass Extension Educators, Farm Commons, Conservation
Law Foundation, and the USDA. See the full program for the Cross-Sector Day
