Print (using Acrobat Reader) a list of the 22 mentors.

The Minnesota Organic Farmers' Information Exchange (MOFIE) links producers with information needed to farm organically and successfully by connecting with other experienced organic farmers. The program consists of a dynamic group of 22 certified organic producers from all over the state of Minnesota. Their expertise covers many areas of organic production in Minnesota such as crop, beef, dairy, poultry, vegetable, fruit, maple syrup, and flower production.

Each mentor has generously agreed to answer questions through phone calls or emails. They are available to take calls from anyone interested in what they are doing on their farms. However, please try to call during the requested times listed. And remember to thank them for their time and willingness to volunteer for such an important job!
