Winter Financial Series with Ellen Polishuk: Labor Considerations & Models - Dec 2026

📅 14 December 2026

Labor is getting more expensive – how can you afford to hire and keep good folks?

We will look at the change in labor cost and discuss that compared to other costs of production. We will look at labor cost as a percentage of gross sales as our gauge of efficiency. Then, strategies on how to get the most valuable work from your crew, and how to gain more labor efficiency. Join this workshop and consider labor on your farm, labor efficiency and different models and then sign up for free follow-up technical assistance with Ellen Polishuk or Jed Beach to do the one-on-one work to get there.

Please pre-register here for any or all sessions of this series. Each session will unlock the possibility of 1-on-1 TA with Ellen Polishuk or Jed Beach. Preference goes to Maine farmers.
