Food Industry Marketing Meetup

Food Marketing Meetup at Morrison Hill Apple Orchard

The Greater Franklin Food Industry Marketing Meetup was a fruitful conversation among farmers, graphic designers, restaurant owners, marketing professionals, coffee slingers, writers, store managers, tree tappers, and aspiring entrepreneurs. The conclusion of the night was that the most enjoyable, effective way to grow our local economy is to bring people together in person, support each other, and inspire each other. And that Morrison Hill Orchard makes really good pizza!
