Gardening seed packaging: Can I purchase & personally package seeds without conflicting with any agricultural regulations?

Can you give more information on what your product is? Then we can figure out what you need in it. Sounds like electronics...but what?

Hi, giving farmers ownership, such as shares, in your business would only invite confusion as the level of business awareness is likely to vary among all the different parties. Instead, create a relationship whereby the farmers have a direct benefit tied to their sales to you such that they will always want to sell to you over others and they will want to direct potential customers to you. Essentially, some kind of volume bonus to the farmers akin to the volume rebate schemes often seen in B2B sales. If you hit certain goals, they get something extra. It gives them a stake in your business without all the complications of actually making them owners. Good luck and arrange a call if you'd like to discuss your situation further. Dave

Consider reaching out to companies like Foodem and Root. Perhaps you've never heard of these names, but i've always liked Foodem's b2b model and for some reason I've always liked their videos, who knows... Root happens to have a great product (and team btw) Eric is a great guy, I'm sure he'd be happy to chat if you introduce yourself. I am speculating, but I suspect they may be able to connect you to a handful of interesting people. I am certain you can find many companies/founders in a similar space; inquire, ask, make new connections etc. etc. When time permits, I get the greatest reward from sharing and helping; we all do... While I can't be certain, I suspect many "funded entrepreneurs" share that same desire to give back and see others succeed. Good luck with Root and Foodem. They are completely different companies and hopefully offer completely unique insights/connections/perspectives etc. Good luck-keep connecting!! Continued success, Gregg M. Kennelly
