Join us for the MarketReady Buyer Tour: Bowling Green
Join us for the MarketReady Buyer Tour in Bowling Green, KY!
Tour Information: During the tour, we will visit 3 or 4 buyers in the Bowling Green area to see what happens behind the back doors! The buyers are to-be-determined; however, they will include a restaurant, a grocery/retail market, and a farm-to-school buyer.
The Buyer Tour allows growers and producers to get a behind-the-scenes look at what happens at these various marketplaces. Growers and producers will be able to ask questions, talk with buyers, and get first-hand experience with what it is like to sell to a restaurant, grocery/retail store, or farm-to-school buyer.
Producers as well as technical assistance providers are encouraged to join!
