Topics include marketing, business planning, resources through MU Extension and the Missouri Department of Agriculture, and regulations for selling a variety of foods, including value-added and cottage foods. MU Extension specialists will also cover how farmers market vendors should handle sales tax. Participants will hear from farmers about their marketing strategies.
