THE VALUE+D GRAINS PROGRAM

Starting on Monday, April 3, 2023, value+d is a customised 12-week program designed to provide grain growers with all of the tools and resources needed to navigate the food value-adding journey. Participants will get access to 1:1 business coaching with food industry experts, high-quality programming, and connections to customers, channels, and mentors. 

Prior to the program launch in April, we are offering a series of FREE workshops, either in person or online, for those that would like to find out more about the value+d program and the opportunity to diversify businesses. 

“There’s a lot of complexity when becoming a value-add business, but there’s also lots of opportunities,” says Dr. Christine Pitt, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Farmers2Founders. “Through the value+d program, we place producers at the centre of the innovation process, and provide them with the tools and support to capture these opportunities and feel confident in value-adding on their own.”
