Join us to learn more about selling cut flowers to local florists! Hudson Valley florist Cara Schmidt has been sourcing flowers locally since 2019. She will explain the why, what, and how of selling locally grown flowers to florists (both retail and event). She will also offer some thoughts on pricing, and some feedback from your florist customer's perspective.

Join us for the 90th Annual Bay State Livestock Classic!

UMass student participants spend the spring semester training and fitting the animals they have chosen to show during the Classic. Students will show horses, cows, chickens, sheep, and goats. The top four competitors then present a variety of animals in a bid to be selected as the day’s “Premier Showperson.”

This will be a hybrid meeting; you can choose to join via Zoom or in-person. The meeting will be held in the AD Makepeace Meeting Room, at the UMass Cranberry Station. In-person seating may fill up fast due to room capacity allowance. If you need more information, contact Robyn Hardy at 508-970-7635 or rmhardy[at]umass[dot]edu (rmhardy[at]umass[dot]edu).
