PSFN are presenting a online users workshop and networking meeting. This is a great opportunity to learn how to use PSFN as a marketing tool; meet Puget Sound Food Network members and staff; and learn how to make PSFN a powerful component in your marketing plans.

The Puget Sound Food Network is a collaborative space dedicated to connecting all aspects of agriculture, from producer to buyer, in mutually beneficial partnerships. Founded in 2009, PSFN utilizes modern resources to create dynamic listings which allow producers, buyers, consumers, services and community partners, to find each other, communicate needs, and develop working relationships.
