  • Principles of Producing Nutrient-Dense Food

  • Exploring The Farm Bill: How Federal Legislation Impacts Our Local Food Systems

  • Lessons Learned From 45 Years as a Berry Farmer

  • Hands-On Tomato Grafting

  • How Farmers Markets & Farmers Can Help Each Other Grow & Thrive

Plus, you won’t want to miss the seed and plant exchange, packed trade show, customized bookstore, food + farming policy lecture, film screening, networking reception, or any of the other activities and “in-between” connection-building moments that are so integral to the conference experience.


Buy your ticket today, and then forward this email to a friend who needs to come too – because in food systems work and in life, community is best grown organically. :)

Hope to see you soon!
