Event Description

Your friends and family rave about your homemade chowder, blueberry jam, ice cream, fudge, or other special food product. They say you should sell it and make a fortune. You wonder if they’re right, and if you have the drive and personality to run a business.

The From Recipe to Market: Ca$hing in on Value-Added Opportunities workshop series will provide an overview of what is involved in taking a specialty food product to market.

Participants will learn about licensing, how to prepare and package their food product safely, to access potential profits, and discover some of the resources available to support them in business development.

Hi Gail, sorry I missed your comment earlier. The workshop is wrapping up, so I don't suppose you want a flyer about it anymore. However, the Cooperative Extension has a publication with the same title and some information about starting your own food business.

You can find it here: http://www.extension.umaine.edu/onlinepubs/htmpubs/3101.htm

Thanks!

Hi, do you have a downloadable/printable brochure of this event? I'd like something to hold in my hands! Thanks.
