The West Virginia Department of Agriculture’s (WVDA) Marketing and Development Division will be updating several of its producer directories in the coming months and is seeking current contact information from new or existing producers.

Producers listed in “Foods ‘n Things,” “West Virginia Wine Directory” and the West Virginia agritourism database will receive update notices in the coming weeks.

“It is imperative that producers update their information. The intent of these publications is to provide free publicity to West Virginia agribusinesses, and to drive consumers directly to our producers,” said Commissioner of Agriculture Gus R. Douglass.

For more information, or to register a new company, call the Marketing and Development Division at 304-558-2210, or e-mail jsmith@ag.state.wv.us.

The West Virginia Department of Agriculture protects plant, animal and human health through a variety of scientific, regulatory and consumer protection programs, as mandated by state law. The Commissioner of Agriculture is one of six statewide elected officials in West Virginia. Currently, Commissioner Gus R. Douglass is the longest-serving agriculture commissioner in the nation.
