Farm financial management webinar series for specialty crop growers

Join Extension's Farm Business Management and Horticulture teams for a webinar series covering farm financial management basics for diversified specialty crop farms. In this three-part series we will go over their balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow; as well as the financial ratios that go along with those statements. 

Through this workshop, you will learn the importance and usefulness of these different financial statements and ratios to make better business decisions for your own farm. In the workshop series, we'll use a fictional case study farm with multiple crops, chickens, and multiple market outlets including  you-pick, on farm-store, farmers markets, and direct to a local restaurant and school. Workshops are free. Each session will build upon the last, and so you are encouraged to attend all or as many as possible.  

Workshop dates: 

• Monday February 1, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
• Monday February 8, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
• Monday February 15, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
• Monday February 22, 12:00pm - 1:00pm (this workshop will relate to labor - more details to come)
