Hort 435-Developing an Ag Startup

The Horticulture 435 course has lectures online each week and one in-person lab. I enjoy this format because I can complete the lecture modules at my own pace throughout the week. The course is based on creating a business plan and navigating the framework, legal documents, and finances of starting your own business. My group is creating business plan for a cut-flower business that one of my group members plans to start after graduation. This course emphasizes the importance of supporting local and finding niche markets as an entrepreneur.
