This year’s conference theme is celebrating 20 years of cultivating food, diversity and relationships in farming. The conference will be at the Heritage Center of Brooklyn Center, in Minnesota.
We’ll be offering in-depth, 4-hour classes on Friday. New this year we’re offering an in-depth class specifically for Ag Professionals. Ag Professionals are people who work to support farmers, at an agency, a non-profit, or an educational institution. After that we’ll have lunch, lots of time to spend in the exhibit hall and networking, a marketplace organized by MN Farmers Market Association, and dinner.
Saturday we’ll have two class times, each with 4 classes happening at the same time. And in the afternoon there will be what we’re calling “Topic Tables”. These are less formal times to have small group discussions around a specific topic.
New this year: In-depth Friday class for Ag Service Providers. Learn more HERE.
Tickets: $50 per day for farmers
Ticket price includes lunch and dinner on Friday and breakfast and lunch on Saturday.
