Agripreneur Specialist
Our family moved to a 14-acre farm in 2008, and we have slowly but surely been building our homestead, with a large vegetable garden, as well as the addition of chickens and dairy goats in 2010, and honeybees and a high tunnel on our wish list for 2011. All of the work and research involved in making this happen has given us a pretty unique understanding of the needs of folks who are ”agripreneurs” – family/hobby farms, CSA’s, farmer’s markets, and businesses that provide products and services to farmers. The local food movement has folks looking for sources in their area, and most people do their searching on the web. As an agripreneur, you can benefit from having your own unique website that will give these potential customers the opportunity to see all that you have to offer, which increases the likelihood that they will make the trip to your location. They will not have to wonder if an old directory listing or word of mouth reference is going to lead them on a wild goose chase through the countryside; your up-to-date website is a confirmation of a valid, viable business that is worth their patronage!
If you have a listing in an online directory such as the variety of yellow page sites, or an agriculture-specific site such as Local Harvest, providing a link to your website for the customers who find you there gives you a chance to stand out from the rest with an informative, interesting profile of your farm, market, or CSA. Our family farm website, Serenity Acres Now, is just one example of the sort of site we can create for your business, but we are certainly not limited to what you see there! Your site can be as simple as a basic profile of your business and what you do, you can also get more dynamically elaborate with the implementation of a blog, or you can even sell products from your website with a shopping cart system! There are many options available, and I charge reasonable rates for my services.
