The Farm Business Plan Accelerator is a 100% online opportunity to meet weekly with other beginning and aspiring farmers to write a farm business plan that fits YOUR farmsite, markets, skills and goals.
The FBP Accelerator focuses on interaction and collaborative learning, with group brainstorming, polls, small group discussions, think/pair/share, directed research, participant presentations and creation of collaborative items to share out. You'll tackle your Farm Business Plan as a series of smaller practical tasks, like Values & Goals, Soil Map & Management Plan, Site Plan, Marketing Plan and Financial Plan. Video lectures, as well as optional readings and videos will also be provided. |
