Wisconsin specialty crop growers, winery and agritourism operators are encouraged to attend the Wisconsin Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Conference Jan. 29-31 at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells.
The WFFVC offers seven educational tracks for apple, berry, grape, fresh market vegetable and Christmas tree growers, and winery and agritourism operators. In addition to the educational sessions, there is a trade show and networking opportunities.
Over 85 sessions will offer attendees information on production, business strategies, marketing, labor and other topics affecting specialty agriculture operations. See specifics on the sessions and the speakers: https://freshfruitvegetable.org/Complete-Schedule
The trade show features businesses that provide inputs and services to the growers and businesses involved in the conference. See the exhibitor lineup: https://freshfruitvegetable.org/Exhibitors
Exhibitors are encouraged to sign-up as soon as possible as space is limited.
Attendees have access to a special rate at the Kalahari. The $119 room rate includes waterpark passes for up to four people. Resort fees are not charged to attendees registering thru the conference. To get these rates, attendees must register before Dec. 25.
The goal of the associations sponsoring the conference is to provide pertinent information that will help attendees be successful in their operations. Also, the conference provides an opportunity for networking between growers and business operators to build relationships that can be beneficial to both parties.
“A sense of cooperation and building better together permeates the event,” says Coordinator Anna Maenner. “Whether your new to the specialty agriculture industry or a veteran, there’s opportunities to learn and network.”
