Seedling Sales and Logistics:
Case Studies and Discussion Session

Join the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry's Horticulture Team, MOFGA Farmer Programs staff, and UMaine Extension staff for a brainstorming session on Creating Safe and Efficient Seedlings Sales Layouts and Logistics in the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak. This discussion is planned for Wednesday April 15th from 6:30- 7:30 with additional time for discussion afterwards.

Specialists will highlight best practices with a few case studies to highlight considerations for 1) outdoors sales areas, 2) enclosed or high tunnel sales areas, and 3) farmers market sales.

We will be looking for your input on what you are implementing and planning as well. We're also hoping to help troubleshoot your operations. If you'd like to talk through your operation with the group, please send: photos (or be prepared to screenshare photos), an explanation of your current systems, and aspects that you'd like to discuss to Jason.lilley@maine.edu prior to the meeting.
