BFRDP

[Shaun Gutierrez]

Hi everyone, I wanted to share an opportunity. It's called the beginner farmer and rancher development program. I did the program this year and it run roughly 8 months, I know it's a long commitment but if you ever plan on working on your own farm in Hawai'i, this program will help out immensely. Below is an email sent to me from the coordinator and she is amazing, helpful, and a wealth of knowledge. I've linked the website as well. Let me know if you have any questions. Im Sorry for the short notice.

Wishing you and your loved ones happy holidays and a great 2018 with lots of farming!! :)

Best wishes,

Melanie
