The Vision, Seeding Your Future in the Community: Project Visioning & Crop Planning
Saturday, February 17, 2018
Bridgeport Art Center, 1200 W. 35th Street (enter at Racine entrance - Dial UGC)

Big vision mapping session; mission & vision statements; defining core values, both personal and commercial; and community engagement. Participants will develop a comprehensive vision of their commercial agriculture endeavor. It is important that participants clearly define the various program elements and economic aspects of their project. Once the big picture is developed, participants will create a project outline that will serve as the blueprint for the business plan to be developed over the year. The process is creative and provides a step-by-step approach to guide the development of a full project plan.
