eXtension - Entrepreneurs and Their Communities
Learn how to better utilize Pinterest for your business when you attend!
Just when you thought you’d gotten a handle on social media by getting on Facebook and maybe giving Twitter a try, along comes Pinterest. Pinterest is now the number three most-popular social network in the U.S., behind only Facebook and Twitter, according to Experian’s Digital Marketer Trend and Benchmark Report. Thru this webinar an introduction to what Pinterest is and why you should use it for your business will be presented. Also discussed will be setting up a Pinterest account, how to interact, and how to create pin boards.
Presenters Tara Gross is a young entrepreneur and owner of Country Drawers in Cambridge, Nebraska and Connie Hancock is an Extension Educator from UNL Extension.

During this webinar, we will feature two projects from different regions of the country working to enhance community and regional food systems.
The two projects highlighted during this webinar are funded through the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI)/National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) Food Security grant program. Projects funded are multi-state, multi-year initiatives that address research, outreach, and education. A second webinar on two other projects will be offered on Wednesday, April 17.
The two projects to be featured:
"Enhancing Community Food Security in Appalachia: Lessons Learned from the Applachian Foodshed Project"
Kim Niewolny and Nikki D'Adamo-Damery
Presenters will provide an overview of the Applachian Foodshed Project and the systems-level work and partnerships that uniquely define our aim of enhancing community food security in the Applachian regions of Virginia, North Carolina, and all of West Virginia. The presenters will share key updates and lessons learned from this multifaceted effort with a focus on coalition building and Action Research.
"Innovations in Community & Regional Food Systems"

Presenters will describe the Community & Regional Food Systems project - a collaboration of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, University of Wisconsin-Extension, Growing Power, Inc., and numerous community based organizations in seven select cities. Presenters will explain the development of our research and outreach methodology called community engagement projects (CEPs) and will share a preliminary version of a community and regional food systems 'framework' for understanding components of values-based food systems.
