Grower-Buyer MeetUp – West Kentucky (Daviess Co)
November 10, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm
Grower-Buyer MeetUps bring together buyers and growers and is co-hosted by the Kentucky Vegetable Growers Association, the Kentucky Society for Horticulture Science, the Kentucky Department of Agriculture, the Kentucky Center for Ag and Rural Development, the University of Kentucky MarketReady Program and the Kentucky Horticulture Council. Produce buyers include chefs, retail, and distribution representatives together in one location to make it easier for growers to make many contacts at once.
During these events, growers have a chance to meet one-on-one in a “speed date” format to exchange contact information and match up products and needs with key buyers. Face-to-face meetings with experts in food safety, organic production, and marketing are also available.
The 2022 fall event will be co-hosted by and held at the Daviess Co Extension Office in Owensboro. The event starts at 9:30 am (central).
