New Changes to Farm Visit

The feedback that we have gotten from farms has directly contributed to the changes to Farm Visit ( http://www.farmvisit.com ).
As we have limited resources we could only contact number of farms and we only concentrated on the farms in California. Currently our site is configured so that it allows for searches for different list of produce in each State. The farms that have written to us have helped us provide better information to the public. We will still work with the farms to enhance this site to better represent them on the Internet.
Some of the changes that are worth mentioning are:

After consulting a few farms listed with us we decided to have "Farm Stay" added on our site for the list of attractions offered. We will have the "Farm Stay" listed also for the locations that are more focused on having a farm experience for their guests.

We have added categories to the list of produce, so that it makes it easier for people to search what they are looking for. Currently the categories include Fruits, Vegetables, Nuts and Seeds, Squash and Trees.

We have also added a searching functionality for Farming Practices. The user can search for "Organic", "Naturally Grown" or "Conventional" farms.

We also added news area so that we can provide information about updates and changes about this site to the public and also the farmers.

We have also updated the PDF form that can be downloaded and filled by farms to be added to our search engine.

If you have your farm listed on our site and there is any information that is not correct please write to us and let us know about it.
There are more changes coming and we hope to have them implemented as they become available. We highly encourage the farms to write to us, call us or e-mail us. This site is intended to provide information about them and we do want to represent them accurately.
A very major point that I also wish to mention is that we are not funded by the government or any State agencies, we currently are paying for this project from our own pockets. Therefore some of the features and updates might take longer to implement, but on the positive note, we do listen to farmers and directly implement features that makes sense to them and not because it would make financial sense.

Starting our new blog to provide updates about the company

I was sitting at a marketing seminar and one thing that the speaker mentioned was how some companies like Microsoft are very good at providing updates about their companies to the clients and public.
As we have a newsletter which is our vehicle to keep our clients updated with changes about our software and services, we were not effectively reaching out to the public. We have started this blog in order to keep the blogging community update about our company.

A little bio about our company:
We are a small company based in Toronto, Canada. We initially started the company focused on computer consulting and providing solutions to our customers. We have started providing some software solutions like http://www.AdDispenser.com and http://www.NewsletterDispenser.com which have been a great success.
We also started to provide number of websites with a focus on content targeted at the public directly:
http://www.OntarioGardening.com is focused on providing gardening information to the Ontarians.
http://www.IdealListing.ca is focused on providing real estate tools and search engine for Canada.
http://www.IdealListing.com is focused on providing real estate tools and search engine for United States.
http://www.FarmVisit.com is focused on providing a great tool for allowing the farms market themselves to the public in United States.
http://www.GardeningShop.ca allows suppliers to sell their inventory on the Internet through this site. The suppliers need to have an agreement with Yasna Inc.

Some of the things we are currently working on:
We are working on providing news updates on our website at http://www.yasna.com, this would provide updates on all our services, websites and changes to them.
We are currently working on updates for FarmVisit and hope to have them completed in the near future.
Thank you for visiting our blog site and keep tuned for more updates and news.
