Hey Friends
I am working with the Center for Regional Food Systems Farm to Institution Working Group. My role on this team is to help identify and with the other the team members, develop resources to help farmers expand their marketing opportunities.

We are seeking farmers like yourself to participate in a short phone survey (taking between 35-55 minutes) . We are seeking farmers that grow produce (fruit or vegetables) or raise animals who are currently or are considering to sell their food to institutions such as schools, hospitals or adult and child care centers.  We will pay $50 to compensate you for your time, for the  completed phone survey. We hope to get a better understanding of things farmers need to make it easier or possible to sell to their food to nearby institutions.

If you can help us and fit this description please contact us so we can arrange a time convenient to you in the next week or so. Please call me on my cell 517-282-3557 or email me: [log in to unmask]
Please provide:
Name
Town
Phone number
Email
What you produce on your farm
Any names of institutions you now sell to or hope to in the future.

I hope to hear from some of you in the next couple of days PLEASE

Thanks for your consideration
Vicki
