SUMMARY:SNAP training for farm employees (session option 2 of 2)
DESCRIPTION:Make sure your farm stand and farmers’ market staff are ready to accept SNAP this summer by having them attend this SNAP employee training. \nEmployees will learn SNAP basics including what EBT cards look like\, what items are SNAP eligible\, how to run a SNAP transaction\, and the differences between SNAP and HIP. Attendees will come away knowing how SNAP works\, how to answer questions around SNAP and HIP\, and how to successfully and legally run a transaction on Conduent and TotilPay machines. \nThis training will also cover the SNAP protocols and rules that the USDA requires businesses to cover with their employees every year. \nThis training is for employees who will be processing SNAP transactions. Open to all staff of farm businesses or farmers’ markets that accept SNAP. \nThis session is being offered at two times which you can choose from: Wednesday\, April 26\, 2:00pm-3:15pm or Monday May 8\, 10:30am-11:45am. \nRegister here! \nA list of employees who attended the training can be provided to the employer\, to satisfy the USDA’s requirement that SNAP trainings for staff be documented.

SUMMARY:Framing your Marketing Messages to Reach Consumers Now
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \nThe last couple of years have brought about unprecedented shifts in consumer behavior because of COVID\, supply chain issues\, and inflation. How can farms\, farmers’ markets\, and other local food businesses shape their messaging to speak to current consumer concerns and needs? CISA conducted consumer surveys in 2020 and 2021\, and we have been gathering additional research on consumer responses to changing circumstances. In this workshop\, CISA Communications Manager Claire Morenon will share the messaging that we think resonates with consumers now\, with time for discussion and brainstorming among attendees. \nPlease contact Claire Morenon at claire@buylocalfood.org or 413-665-7100 ext. 16 with questions.
