Now Available: Baskets to Pallets Teaching Manual

The Cornell Small Farms Program is pleased to announce the new Baskets to Pallets Teaching Manual (1st Edition).  The 16 lesson plans in the Manual are intended for an audience of small and mid-scale farmers in New York and the Northeast, who have been primarily direct marketing, but who are seeking to explore wholesale markets — specifically groceries, food hubs, restaurants or cooperatives.  The Manual contains a series of presentations, discussions, activities, videos and other teaching resources that an agricultural service provider can adapt and tailor to local farmer audiences.  To access the Manual, fill out the user request form. The Baskets to Pallets Teaching Manual was produced in collaboration with Cornell Cooperative Extension and Northeast SARE.  For more information, contact Project Manager Violet Stone at vws7@cornell.edu or 607-255-9227.
