Wild Hope Farm is one of the Southeast's leading USDA Certified Organic farms, offering year-round diversified produce and cut flowers, selling through multiple regional wholesale distributors, farmers' markets, and a CSA program. Farmers Ben, Mary, and Peanut give a guided tour of the farm and walk participants through what it takes to scale up in the fields and the pack-house. They offer insights from their experience using riding versus walk-behind tractors, considering field layout, row spacing, and cultivation, adding haygroves to their high tunnel production, and post-harvest practices to ensure wholesale readiness. Kim facilitates a discussion with regional organic buyers about what it takes to move high-quality organic products successfully. Join this crew for an energizing on-farm experience and networking event focused on scaling organic production for wholesale success.
