About this Event
Nearly a third of Florida’s farmers have been farming for less than 10 years, and are therefore considered beginning farmers and ranchers. Running a successful farm operation takes long and short term planning, creativity and a supportive community. National and State statistics show our farming population is approaching retirement so Florida needs beginning farmers!
The Florida Cooperative Extension Service is in every Florida County and has staff with a wealth of experience. Come take the first step to becoming a farmer and learn how to produce food!
This class will be offered as a "Hybrid" class, come in person or attend on Zoom.
The class will include topics such as:
- Introductory agronomy
- Choosing a commodity
- Planning and management
- Taxes and greenbelt exemption
- How Extension can help you
