Farming Outside the Box

February 17-20 in Mason, Doddridge, Roane and Wood Counties

Presenter: Ed and Becky Morgan

Ed and Becky Morgan of Quicken Farm are primarily pork farmers in Hampshire County that process and sell their own products. After trying to fit into the standard boxes of State or Federal Inspection for meat processing and finding themselves the unlikeliest pair of Goldilocks, they decided the best fit was Federal Retail Exempt. They will explain to you the ins and outs of how their operation works and give you the information you need to decide if this is the best way for your own operation to move forward.
