Entrepreneurship 2020

January 12-17, 2020

We are excited to host the second year of the Entrepreneurship Intensive for Farmers in collaboration with Ideagarden and Blue Hill. This immersive, experiential program gives farmers the opportunity to learn from and collaborate with William Rosenzweig, Co-Chair of the Sustainable Food Initiative at Berkeley Haas School of Business, other experts, and one another as they develop their entrepreneurial skills and explore how to integrate community and food culture into the ecological potential of their farms.

Hear from the 2018 Cohort

I am departing so incredibly nourished — physically, emotionally, mentally, and energetically. Some of the magic for me came from the thoughtful curation of the group, the intensity of the program content matched with holistic delivery. I have never experienced a week quite like this in my life… I will be digesting this experience for months to come and I sense this will be a point that will influence the course of the rest of my life.

[The program] truly empowered me to take big steps in growing my business by thinking strategically with a regenerative, growth mindset. The farming community will benefit from this level of engagement in activating farmer minds to the mission of regenerative farming.
