2022 Farm Tour Host Application

The nine Farm Tours the ASCFG produced in 2021 were popular with our members, who were happy to see each other in person. The 2021 hosts may have gotten even more out of them than the attendees, as they shared their growing and marketing experiences. Please note the following:

  • The ASCFG staff will handle the registration process.
  • The ASCFG will cover the cost of food and beverage, portable restroom, audio visual, and shipping. Any additional costs should be requested and discussed in the planning stage.
  • The Tour host will receive an honorarium to be determined at the discretion of the committee depending on the number of attendees and length of the event. $500 – $1,000
  • Commercial General Liability Insurance is required.
    We require evidence of current coverage in an amount no less than $1 million per occurrence/$1 million in the aggregate. If certificate expires prior to the date of your event, please send updated certificate 30 days prior.

Thank you in advance for supporting the ASCFG and your fellow members!

Yes! I would like to host a farm tour for ASCFG members at my farm.

  • Educational Objectives

    We’re excited to learn more about your farm and the proposed educational experience you would like to host for ASCFG members.
  • Please describe your farm as if you were talking with fellow members. What do you grow? What will other growers be most excited to learn? What process or product are you most proud of on your farm? What are your most important cut flowers? Do you have unique systems or specialties? Conversations on farm layout, production systems, varieties, infrastructure, and sales outlets are all appreciated topics.
  • Hosts should have previous experience speaking and/or leading a tour or workshop. While an educational background is not required, please share about your prior experiences in this area.
  • Briefly list the THREE most important take-aways a farmer will learn on your farm tour. Examples include but are not limited to, “Attendees will learn how I manage my crop-specific breeding program and will gain ideas for their own” or “Attendees will learn how I developed my sales channels through deliberate outreach to florists over the course of five years.”

  • Whether you’re engaging in a half or full day tour, please provide an outline of planned activities for the duration of the farm tour. Questions to consider: What educational programming are you offering? For example, will you have guest speakers? Will there be hands-on activities, such as creating a flower crown or drafting a social media strategy?
  • These will be used to promote and publicize your event.
