"Working at Cooperative Extension, I assist those who are interested in expanding their agricultural operations, either through agritourism or value-added products.
Both require the operation to take on a greater amount of risk than 'just' farming. I refer operations to Farm Commons both on through our website and in direct conversations as I find their commonsense approach to risk for agricultural operations to be straightforward and immensely helpful to even the most experienced operations."
