Pricing for Profit Workshop
June 18, 2014
Start time 6:00 pm

“What price should I charge?”
“Where's the best place for me to sell my produce?”
“How can I make a profit at this?”
“What is a market channel anyway?”

Are these questions you wonder about? On June 18 at 6 pm, Bob Weybright, Business Development Specialist with the Eastern NY Commercial Horticulture Program (ENYCHP) will be at the Hudson Valley Lab, 3357 Route 9W in Highland, for a twilight presentation and discussion, including a light dinner.

He'll provide some suggestions that can help you find some answers to these and other questions you might experience over the course of your growing and selling season. Resources to help you determine a price, where to find price comparisons, and the ins and outs of various market channels will be discussed to help you feel more comfortable with your selling decisions.

Cost: $20 per person for those enrolled in ENYCHP, $30 for those not enrolled - a light supper is included.

We need a head count in order to have enough food so please mail your registration ASAP. Make checks payable to CCE ENYCHP. You can still enroll to get the discount; we will have enrollment forms available that night.
