Annie's Project is taught by trained facilitators and is designed for farm women who have been in farming, or agri-business, or part of the food system for three to five years, and want to develop their understanding, interpretation, and opportunities in sustainable agriculture. Annie's Project gives farm women the opportunity to learn from female agricultural professionals and network with other women in similar situations.

o Learn how to conduct a brand audit of their farm or business and make updates/changes based on the audit
o Create a marketing strategy statement which reflects their target customer
o Create a social media strategy which meets their business goals
o Understand and evaluate which e-commerce platform makes the most sense for their farm, or products
o Learn to take great pictures
o Understand how targeted communication pieces can help meet their goals 

The cost is $60 for the four-part series and registration is limited to enhance group discussions. Sessions will not be recorded. The cost includes copies of all presentations and worksheets, and support from a variety of community partners. The series will take place on Tuesdays, 11:30am-1pm, April 5th-26th.
