St. Johns County Offering Florida Food Entrepreneurship Program

With growing interest in fresh local food, more people are starting their own small-scale food business, and the number of small food businesses in Florida is expected to continuously increase. To run a successful business in a competitive food market, you’ll need a good business plan and basic understanding about food processing, packaging, marketing and regulatory requirements. UF/IFAS Extension’s Food Entrepreneurship program can help you get started on your journey to success.

Join us for a 2 day workshop on May 21-22nd at the UF/IFAS Extension St. Johns County Agricultural Center at 3125 Agricultural Center Drive, St. Augustine. Register online at: uf-ifas-flfood2019.eventbrite.com. Early bird sale by May 6th. You can register for either one or both days. See link for further information on pricing and agenda.

Unfortunately our event was postponed until 2021 due to the lack of vendor participation, and overall health concerns for such as large event. Sorry for the sad news! We'll have the hot sauce contest next year for sure.
