Small Farm Central is taking a trip to Pacific Grove, CA for the Eco Farm conference [1] at the end of this week (Jan. 23-26).

On Friday, I am giving a talk on web marketing for farms. This will not be a advertisement for Small Farm Central, just a general overview of how and why to get your farm online.

Here is the description listed in the program for the talk:

Tending Technology: How to Market your Farm with New Media
The Internet can be intimidating, confusing and time consuming, but a website can be an amazing asset to your farm. New media can save time, increase your visibility in the community, create paths for communication during the off-season, and encourage contact between farm customers. Learn quick and easy techniques for successful Internet marketing with email mailing lists, websites, e-commerce, and farm blogs. Find out how tending technology can take your farm to a new level.
Presenter: Simon Huntley, Small Farm Central, Pittsburgh, PA.

I will also have a table in the tradeshow, so be sure to stop by for a chat if you will be at the conference.
