Join the Chesapeake Agriculture Innovation Center (CAIC) for Producers Unveiled 2025 — our annual signature event showcasing the growth, creativity, and resilience of Delmarva’s farmers and value-added producers.
Taking place on June 4, 2025, this one-day celebration brings together a vibrant mix of agricultural entrepreneurs, food system advocates, industry experts, and community supporters — all in the beautiful setting of Outstanding Dreams Alpaca Farm in Preston, Maryland.
At the heart of the event are the inspiring stories of producers who have transformed their raw ingredients into thriving businesses. You’ll hear firsthand how they’ve grown, where they’re headed next, and what it takes to succeed in today’s evolving agricultural and business landscape.
This year’s keynote speaker is Gayle Galbraith, founder of The Federal Brewing Company. Gayle’s powerful story — from founding an innovative kombucha brewery to overcoming life-changing health challenges — is a true testament to resilience, entrepreneurship, and the spirit of small business. You won't want to miss hearing from her!

• Product tastings and showcases from CAIC program participants and alumni
• Engaging success stories from local producers
• A pop-up farmers market with locally made goods
• Networking with farmers, food entrepreneurs, service providers, and buyers
• A farm-fresh lunch
