Dear Farm Business Owner:

The Fauquier County Agricultural Development Department would like to offer you this opportunity to be included in the 2009-2010 Fauquier County Farm Product and Services Directory. We would also like to offer you the opportunity to register for the use of the Fauquier Agriculture HomeGrown label for your agricultural products. The label program is sponsored by the Fauquier County AG Development Department. This label is a method for consumers, retailers, restaurants, farmers markets, and wholesalers to solicit and promote locally grown produce or locally made goods, by expanding buyer tendency through buyer recognition. This helps insure the prosperity and continuation of local farms.

Registration for both programs is FREE. The Fauquier County Farm Product And Services Directory will be distributed to the public. This is an opportunity for free marketing through a Fauquier County Agricultural Development publication, and the chance to make use of the Fauquier Agriculture HomeGrown label. By including your farm’s name, the publication will enhance the consumer name recognition of your farm, and offer you a chance for your farm to enhance relationships within the community.

We are excited about these programs and hope you will take advantage of them and find them beneficial. If you would like to be included in either of these programs, please respond by April 24, 2009 by printing out the application form, then completing, signing, and mailing, or faxing the questionnaire back to:



If you have any comments or questions or know of someone who would be interested in either of these programs and is not on our mailing list, then please contact Sherri Gabardy. You may write questions or comments on the enclosed questionnaire or attach a sheet of paper, or call 540-349-5314, or email sherri.gabardy@fauquiercounty.gov. You may also fax the application to 540-349-8938.
