Event Description

The project is to develop an app and a website that will connect local food consumers to local farmers in an effort to support farming economies. Project organizers want to talk to farmers and find out if such a tool would help them and if yes, how it can help. The first workshop is in Elgin, and farmers who live in the area are invited to participate.
