All of this will help to maximize the visibility of your business.

Background / Updates
During Family Farm Day, local farms and farm-related businesses welcome visitors to explore their operations, sample products, and enjoy tours, demonstrations, and hands-on activities, which are all great reasons to spend the day, or even the weekend, in our region.
A Family Farm Day rack card and the FFD Farm Guide will promote the event from June through August. Sponsor display ads are featured in the Farm Guide. Display ad space is limited and will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Farm Guide is a two-sided, full-color 18” W × 23.5” H map that folds to a 4” × 9” rack-card size for display racks. Rural News Service* distributes the rack cards and Farm Guides through their extensive network of display racks (refilled weekly). The Farm Guide will also be available to farms and posted online as a downloadable PDF.
