Lillian Otieno, Emerging Farmer Outreach and Engagement Coordinator – Commissioners Office, at the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA).

“Update on MN’s Emerging Farmers”

Lillian will provide an update on the new MDA Emerging Farmer Office and the Emerging Farmer Working Group which was established by Laws of Minnesota 2020, Chapter 89, Article 17.055. The purpose of the working group is to advise the commissioner and legislature regarding the development and implementation of programs and initiatives that support emerging farmers in Minnesota.


MFMA provides services, programs, and leadership that support and promote farmers' markets

across Minnesota and our Tribal Nations.

We envision a community of vibrant, profitable, and professionally managed Minnesota farmers’ markets that:

Cultivates, nourishes, and inspires a vibrant local foods community;

provides accessibility to all to local farm fresh foods;

allows local food producers to thrive and grow.
