Join MIFarmLink for a one-hour Michigan Farmer Connect session held on the first Friday of each month. Each month features a different topic, guest speaker, or agricultural resource designed to help Michigan farmers and farmland owners navigate the resources available to them. During the session on November 6, Jazmin Bolan-Williamson, Farm and Food Business Coordinator of Michigan State University Center for Regional Food Systems, will cover Loan Readiness for First-Time Borrowers.

The Loan Readiness for First Time Borrowers Webinar is designed to help break down the steps of the lending process for farm and food business owners who are first-time borrowers.
In this session, Bolan-Williamson will share a loan readiness checklist and present on:
- Different types of business loans,
- Key terms and explanations,
- Basic lender requirements, and
-
Free resources to help prepare for financing.
