Ep #25 Confessions of a Farmers Market Manager

02/16/21 • 60 min

Food Business Success® with Sari Kimbell

I am getting so many questions about farmers markets lately and so I recruited a friend who runs a large market in Denver and we are having a frank conversation about COVID and how vendors can be more successful at a market.
AND be sure to register for the upcoming live Farmer's Market Masterclass. I am updating the class to include even more gems and a few COVID related tips. You will also learn what to expect when you start at a farmers market (financially, time and more), your next four steps and the three biggest mistakes I see producers make at a market, and how to avoid them.

We recorded this interview and it is on YouTube with images of market booths we think are doing a great job!
