Event Description
The future of farming depends on the successful entry of a new generation of farmers!
This conference is designed to help remove obstacles faced by young farmers, such as access to land and capital, working with various distribution channels (markets, cooperatives, institutions, CSA), lack of general agricultural skill-sets, and more.
The Young Farmers Conference is a space to network with peers and learn from leaders in the field, helping to ensure the next generation of farmers is equipped for the work ahead.
This year's keynote address will be delivered by Wes Jackson of the Land Institute.
