  Course Schedule and Participant Guide

Overview

This course is the second part of learning about what type of farm business you want to start and how you will measure progress. The first part was the BF 101: Starting at Square One course. You can take this course without taking BF 101 first!

The first week of BF 102 is the only week of overlap with BF 101. We want all learners to further refine mission/vision/goals or to start the process and then start on a marketing plan.

Webinar Schedule

In 2025, this course will be offered live for 6-weeks on Thursdays from 6:00 – 7:30 PM (Eastern) from January 16 – February 20. While we encourage live attendance, so you have the opportunity to engage with presenters and ask questions, all webinars are recorded and posted in the online classroom to watch anytime. Once enrolled in this course, you will retain access to all materials indefinitely, and can return to participate in the live webinars in future offerings of the course if you wish. Join us!

To access the webinars during our next live session, you will simply need to click on the webinar join link that is posted in the Weekly Resources section of this course. This link only works on the appointed day and time for the webinar, so while you can try clicking it sooner, it won't open the webinar meeting for you.

You may also join our webinars from a mobile device by installing the official Zoom app from your preferred app store. Then, when it's time for a webinar, simply open your Zoom app and enter the 9-digit meeting ID that will be posted along with the webinar link.
