Farmers' Blog

The Farmers’ Blog is a great place for local producers to talk about their farm or ranch, their products, current projects, trials, tribulations and what’s happening lately. Are you a local producer with a new product? Do you want to share info about your growing practices? Would you like to voice your opinion about food policies or food politics? It’s a great way to connect with your buyers, your community, it’s free and it’s easy! If you’re interested in contributing, please contact Alison Grey at the Co-op, 587-1919, extension 76 or email alison@bozo.coop.
