Sorghum Checkoff Adopts New Strategic Plan

After 10 years working on behalf of U.S. sorghum farmers, the Sorghum Checkoff set out to adopt and implement a new strategic plan in hopes of leading the way to a better, more profitable industry. 
 
Since 2008, the Sorghum Checkoff has enhanced its efforts in research, promotion and information to help producers yield greater financial return. Agriculture, however, is changing rapidly and becoming bigger, faster and more technology-driven. 
 
In order to keep sorghum relevant, the board of directors saw a need for greater focus on adding value through market development. 
 
With a new strategic focus, the Sorghum Checkoff board of directors and staff will seek to provide leadership and be a catalyst for positive change for sorghum producers going forward.

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
