Farm Market Industry

Very few people can say that they have spent their entire life dedicated to the same industry. Scott is an exception. He cannot remember a time when he was not a part of the family farm market. Scott's experiences are unique because his family's farm market started the same year he was born. Consequently, he has grown along with the business from four rows of sweet corn to a farm market with over 100 acres of fresh produce and a key fall destination for area tourism.

Scott has over 10 years of experience in the corn maze industry, but his knowledge and skills cover much of the agri-tourism industry. Through years of working with his family's farm and many other farms all over the world, he has seen the challenges that farms must overcome in order to be successful.

Presentation topics may include corn mazes and their future, agri-marketing, agri-tourism, public relations and advertising for farm markets, various media including print, visual, and web, managing time, labor, and resources, and many other business and marketing related topics.
