SUMMARY:QuickBooks and Farm Financial Management Workshop — Abingdon
DESCRIPTION:Work on your farm’s financial systems\nVirginia State University Cooperative Extension will offer a QuickBooks and Farm Financial Management Workshop Oct. 24\, 2026\, from 1 to 4 p.m. in Abingdon\, Virginia. The session takes place at the Southwest Virginia Higher Education Center\, 1 Partnership Circle\, Abingdon\, VA 24210. Participants must bring a laptop. Organizers offer one year of QuickBooks access at no charge and describe the workshop as an opportunity for one-on-one technical assistance. The public listing does not state a workshop registration fee. \nConnect records with farm decisions\nThe announced support addresses financial stability\, loss prevention\, risk management and USDA programs. It also points farmers toward legal\, tax and farm business services. Those connections can help participants identify where they need further assistance after the workshop. To prepare\, consider writing down the bookkeeping task that gives you the most trouble and the reports you would like to understand better. You might also outline the records you already keep and the parts of your system you want to improve. These are optional preparation suggestions\, rather than a published requirement to bring financial documents. Ask the coordinator what information\, accounts or software setup you should have available on your laptop before arriving. That conversation can help you use the technical assistance time efficiently. \nRegister and ask about assistance\nJimmy Maclin is the contact for workshop questions at 804-731-6595 or jlmaclin@vsu.edu. Mandy Fletcher and Wayne Browning are also involved in coordination. The announcement offers travel assistance; contact the organizer to learn the conditions and how to request it. Do not assume that every travel expense qualifies or that assistance is automatic. Register through the event’s linked form and review the confirmation for instructions. Charge your laptop\, bring its power adapter and check that you can access the accounts you expect to use. If you need accommodations or help with the software offer\, raise those questions before the workshop. Keep the official event link available to check for updates. After attending\, choose a manageable next step for your farm records and follow up with the relevant service provider when you need more specialized guidance. \nOfficial event information | Register
