Agricultural Producer Survey on Markets

The Kentucky Center for Agriculture and Rural Development is working with the Louisville Metro Government and the Berry Center to interview farmers in the region selling their products into the local market or who are interested in making local sales. Your participation in this survey will help improve the local food system in the region. We hope you will provide your contact information at the end of the survey, so that we can stay in touch and provide additional resources to you. Regardless, we will not share any information you provide with any outside groups and we will not sell that information. If you have questions about the survey, please contact the Kentucky Center for Agriculture and Rural Development at abotts@kcard.info or 270-763-8258.
