Farm Photography & Authentic Marketing with Molly Peterson

In the face of so many technologies and social channels online, marketing your farm can feel like a never-ending loop of "trying to keep up with posts." What if we told you there's a way to approach these tasks that is not only healthier for you, but more meaningful and authentic for your customers? Instead of trying to sell a product, open a window to the magic of your farm through visual storytelling. Customers want to experience the journey of farming with you, which, in turn, will lead them to support you without needing stock Canva reminders.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

In this hands-on, cameras-on, phones-on workshop, internationally published farm & food photographer Molly Peterson will not only inspire you authentically market yourself and product, but will share technical, professional photography tips to ensure your accompanying photos grab people's attention.
