No one likes taxes, but getting them done right is as important as any other part of farming. Farm businesses have specific reporting that can be daunting for beginning operations. This workshop will help provide insight and develop confidence in completing the Schedule F, the official tax documentation for Profit and Loss from Farming. Learn what you need to report and how, help reduce your taxable income, and enjoy some light humor along the way.
This is a free workshop hosted by the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Buncombe County Center, and sponsored by Empowering Mountain Food Systems and the AB Tech Small Business Center.
