With more than 250,000 followers across LinkedIn,
Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, DeHoff utilizes her
storytelling skills to prove that being a cowgirl isn't
in the way you look, where you live or the lifestyle you
create - it's a state of mind.
Benefits of farm marketing and
agritourism
Another opportunity within the agriculture industry
is farm markets. Beth Hubbard, board member of the
Michigan State Horticulture Society, has her own farm
market and understands the importance of them.
" One of the benefits of farm markets is the ability
to grow and sell your own products all in one place, "
Hubbard said. " When the farm and the market are
together, so you can connect the public to the farm.
People can learn how things are grown and have a
unique great experience on the farm. "
How roundtables can grow business,
knowledge
Roundtables are another great way to grow and learn
more about farm marketing and agritourism. Hubbard
encourages attendees to stop by roundtables to get a
more personal connection with others at the show.
" When you attend a roundtable it's a smaller group
of people and it's more informal. You'll meet people
who are very passionate about that particular topic, "
Hubbard said. " People are there to help, talk and
share their own experiences. It's a great way to meet
people who have related interests. You'll often find
people exchanging business cards and information and
following up later. "
Hubbard loves attending Great Lakes EXPO because
of all the opportunities it brings, including meeting and
networking with new people, learning new things and
experiencing the world of agriculture.
" I find that EXPO is always a good time to experience
more educational opportunities, meet new vendors,
walk the trade show and discover new things that you
could use on your farm or in your market, " Hubbard said.
