Here is a note from the MSU CS Mott Group Farm to School
Coordinator, Colleen Matts. This meeting will offer you with a
chance to start to figure out your opportunities to sell to your local schools.
--------------------------------------------
Attention Farmers and
Vendors:
Schools can provide new, stable, steady
markets for Michigan farmers.
Join us for a Meet & Greet event that
will give Michigan farmers and vendors a chance to talk with school food
service directors from the Saginaw, Bay, and Midland areas who are interested
in purchasing local foods for school meals.
Get your questions answered!
Participating school food service
directors will discuss:
· Products of interest
for schools
· Bidding procedures
· Delivery, packaging,
and payment arrangements
· And much more!
