In order to better assess the needs and wishes of local growers SustainFloyd convened a Growers Round Table in February 2016. Over 80 farmers and food entrepreneurs attended and there was a lively interaction. The meeting included representatives from the Floyd County Economic Development office, Floyd County Extension Service, and from the local nonprofit Plenty. As a result of the meeting a list of ideas and suggestions was gathered, and later refined by a small working group. This list is helping to guide the work of SustainFloyd and the other entities engaged in the conversation.
