Dear Gary and faithful trainees,
There is an Organiclea contingent planning to attend of the Oxford
Real Farming conference January 6-7th. We're staying in the Oxford
Youth Hostel. Tickets start at £18. Lettuce know if you're planning
to come and join our contingent.
Building
the Renaissance
This will look at ways to actually achieve the agrarian renaissance
that we believe is necessary. In a range of presentations, panel
discussions and workshops this strand will cover issues ranging from
help and advice to those who want to become farmers to a look at the
academic and political landscape and how far it can help promote
Real Farming.
The ticket for Building the Renaissance gives you access to
New
Generation, New Ideas (Turl Street Kitchen) and
Big
Picture Thinking (Jesus College) looking at some of the
wider issues including the science, economics and politics of
agriculture.
