We are looking for applications from farmers located in King County who are seeking to develop tools and strategies to effectively use e-commerce platforms to sell their products. The program will run from October to November, and will consist of a mix of on-demand video content, live Q&As with other farmers who are experienced users of e-commerce platforms, and mentorship and support from other farmers and the platforms themselves.

What we are providing:

• Three modules of tailored content, which will include on-demand video presentations (watchable at your convenience during the given program weeks) and live Q&As with farmers with deep e-commerce experience
• Mentor sessions with farmers and platforms
