Annually in February and March, we host regional Local Food Producer Workshops in collaboration with the Kansas Department of Agriculture and Kansas SARE. In 2026, the workshops are also co-sponsored by Growing Growers through their USDA-NIFA Beginning Farmer Rancher Development grant.

These workshops are an opportunity for producers and small food businesses to learn more about selling their products through farmers markets, direct-to-consumers sales, and other local market opportunities. Participants can connect with other producers and learn from their peers to improve their business success.
