Taste of Nebraska Agri-Tourism Event

The 3rd Governor’s Agri/Eco-Tourism Workshop is scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday February 5-6, 2008, in North Platte at the Sandhills Convention Center. New this year is a Tuesday evening networking event called “Taste of Nebraska Agri-tourism” from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm.

The Governor’s conference invites people to showcase their Nebraska homemade / homegrown products at the Tuesday evening networking event. It will be set up similar to a farmer’s market. There is no cost to participants; however organizers ask that they provide samples of products for attendees to taste. Packaged products, except for wine and beer, can be sold. Each vendor will also have a chance to give an “elevator speech” regarding their business or products.

If you are interested in having space to showcase your Nebraska-made products during the “Taste of Nebraska Agri-Tourism” networking event, please contact Karen Kollars, karenk@VisitNebraska.org  or 308.249.3220.
