SUMMARY:Join a Rural Grocery Peer Group!
DESCRIPTION:Running a rural grocery store is tough\, and at times\, isolating. Many grocers value learning from each other and want more opportunities to connect. \nTo help bridge this gap\, RGI will be facilitating Rural Grocery Peer Groups. By providing space for mutual support and knowledge exchange\, these groups will help foster a stronger\, more connected rural grocery community. \nWHO: Owners and managers of independent rural grocery stores located in the Heartland Regional Food Business Center (NE\, IA\, MO\, KS\, OK\, AR) \nWHAT: Peer groups will be composed of no more than 12 non-competing rural grocers. Each group will meet for one hour once a month to ask each other questions\, share advice\, learn best practices\, speak directly with industry experts\, and motivate each other. \nWHEN: February through October 2025 (dates and times TBD) \nWHERE: Zoom \nCOST: Free! \nInterested grocers should complete a brief online application by Jan. 17\, 2025. \nFrom there\, the RGI team will organize participants into peer groups and coordinate monthly meetings with participants.\nDue to capacity limitations\, we cannot guarantee there will be space for everyone who applies. However\, we will do our best to accommodate you. \nQuestions? Email Erica Blair at elblair@ksu.edu.

SUMMARY:Leaving a Lasting Legacy for Midwestern Farm Women
DESCRIPTION:Multiple Day Event – Please Read:\nThis four-part farm succession planning workshop series is produced through a partnership by extension professionals at Kansas State University\, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln\, and Purdue University.  Each session will be held at in-person sites across Kansas\, Nebraska\, and Indiana.  The program will feature a livestreamed keynote presentation and local hands-on activity to motivate participants to create farm succession plans and facilitate family and business conversations around this vital topic.  Sixty-three in-person sites are available across these three states\, as well as a fully online version of the program.\nProgram Description\nAccording to US Census data\, 70% of U.S. farmland will transfer to the next generation in the next 20 years. The impact of farms transitioning\, either successfully to the next generation or unsuccessfully in the form of a land and estate sale\, has implications for rural communities and rural prosperity. As farms become fewer and larger\, population decline has hurt many rural areas\, affecting the economic viability of more than just those directly on farms. \nThis hands-on evening workshop series will provide educational presentations and resources to motivate participants to start the farm transition planning process or review their current transition plan. Communication\, financial\, and legal aspects will all be covered.  The goal is for participants to acquire knowledge they can apply directly to their own farm/ranch situation. \nParticipants must register for the entire 4-part series\, as sessions will build upon each other. \nThis program is just one example of K-State Research and Extension’s commitment to diversity\, equity and inclusion.  While the program is designed to highlight women’s issues in agriculture\, it is open to any participant without regard to sex. \nFor more information\, contact Robin Reid\, K-State Agricultural Economics at 785-532-0964 or robinreid@ksu.edu(link is external). \nProgram Schedule\n**Note that times listed are in Central Time Zone.  For the Syracuse & Goodland locations\, all session will start at 4:30 pm Mountain Time*** \nJanuary 21st\, 2025:\n5:00 pm Registration & Dinner\n5:30 pm Motivation for Succession Planning – A Personal Story\n7:00 pm Local Activity/Discussion\n8:00 pm End \nJanuary 28th\, 2025:\n5:00 pm Dinner\n5:30 pm Family Communication around Estate and Transition Planning – Ashlee Westerhold and LaVell Winsor\, K-State Ag Economics\n7:00 pm Local Activity/Discussion\n8:00 pm End \nFebruary 4th\, 2025:\n5:00 pm Dinner\n5:30 pm Financial Aspects of Estate and Transition Plans – Jessica Groskopf\, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension\n7:00 pm Local Activity/Discussion\n8:00 pm End \nFebruary 11th\, 2025:\n5:00 pm Dinner\n5:30 pm Legal Aspects of Putting Your Plan into Place – Holly Dobbs\, Esq.\, Dobbs & Folz\, LLC\n7:00 pm Local Activity/Discussion\n8:00 pm End \nRegistration Information\nThe registration fee for in-person attendance is $60.00 before Jan. 12th\, 2025\, which includes all four nights meals and educational materials.   The fee increases to $75.00 after Jan. 12th\, 2025\, and a workbook is not guaranteed.  For in-person registration\, the fee will be collected at the local site the first night of the program.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual National Farm Stop Conference
DESCRIPTION:The 2nd Annual National Farm Stop Conference will be held March 2–4\, 2025\, in Ann Arbor\, Michigan\, bringing together leaders from across the U.S. local food movement to explore the growth and future of the innovative “Farm Stop” retail model. \nFarm Stops provide a year-round\, daily platform for farmers to sell their products in an exclusively local\, professional grocery setting. These unique stores prioritize small farm revenue\, aiming to rebuild local food systems while offering consumers access to fresh\, sustainably sourced products. \nOver the past year\, Farm Stops have experienced remarkable growth\, with the model now expanding into over 10 states\, from Washington to New York\, and Michigan to South Carolina. This expansion reflects a growing demand for local food systems that strengthen communities and provide greater support to small farmers. \nUnlike traditional grocery stores\, the Farm Stop model allows farmers to retain ownership of their goods and set their own prices. Close communication between Farm Stops and farmers ensures robust year-round sales and exceptionally low food waste. The result is a win-win: farmers earn more\, and consumers enjoy convenient access to high-quality\, locally grown food. \nDates: \nMarch 2–4\, 2025 \nLocation: \nAnn Arbor\, Michigan \nWebsite: \nfarmstops.net \nHosted by Argus Farm Stop and presented in partnership with the Fair Food Network\, the conference promises to be a catalyst for collaboration and innovation in the local food movement. \nNo refunds. Please visit the website for additional cost and travel information.
