The Marketing Solutions Roundtable is designed to help us explore what is possible in our six-state region by exchanging ideas, learning together and cultivating new connections for creating, expanding and diversifying markets for these crops, looking at what is working here and elsewhere that could be implemented, adapted and innovated to expand markets locally and regionally. Our focus is specifically on the six states of Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming.
The Marketing Solutions Roundtable will include:
A keynote by Dan Hobbs, long-time cooperative development specialist, organic farmer and entrepreneur, collaborative leader and ag innovator from Montezuma County, Colorado.
A slate of firsthand “solution stories” from our region and across the country, highlighting successful efforts involving different partners and market-building approaches. We’ll learn about direct-to-consumer marketing, how networks and collaboratives are expanding local and regional markets, shared facilities like community mills, how end users create networks of growers to supply their needs and how growers grow niche markets for their grains-—all with behind-the-scenes insights into how to get started, maintain over time, learn and adapt.
Breakout rooms for peer exchange and networking, deeper dives into how to implement or adapt different approaches, and opportunities to connect with others in your state.
