The Connecticut Department of Agriculture’s sixth annual Connecticut Grown magazine is now available in print and digital versions. The publication serves as a guide to the state’s farmers markets and food producers.
The latest edition is focused on efforts to diversify not only who grows food in the state, but the ways and areas that can contribute to food production and how it is sold to consumers.
Requests for print editions can be filed online at this address, while the online edition can be found at https://ctgrown.org/.
“Connecticut may be a smaller state, but our agricultural impact is substantial. It’s always exciting when I get to join the Department of Agriculture to highlight all of the great CT Grown products and suppliers throughout our state because there really is so much variety, diversity, and innovation happening,” said Lt. Governor Bysiewicz. “Now in its sixth edition, Connecticut Grown magazine is an accessible and convenient guide to learn about our farms, food, and markets. I can’t thank Commissioner Hurlburt and the staff at the Department of Agriculture enough for all the work they do to promote our state’s farmers.”
“Farming in Connecticut spans from the ground to the Sound, and the pages of Connecticut Grown magazine offer an opportunity to promote agriculture to a growing audience, educate community leaders on the positive impact of agriculture and showcase how state and federal programs are shifting to meet the needs of today’s farmers,” said Agriculture Commissioner Bryan P. Hurlburt. “This wouldn’t be possible without our farmers and organizations featured in the stories, supportive advertisers and distribution partners, and of course the team at Farm Flavor Media who worked in lockstep with our team to curate an engaging publication.”
