Hi Melinda,
I'm glad you were able to catch some of the stream and enjoyed it.
Sadly, because of internet connectivity issues in the room where David Sobel spoke, we could not stream the conference and thus it did not record.
We will have quite a few other resources available in the next few weeks as we compile resources from all of the presenters.
Thank you for you attendance online!

Todd McLane (from West Haven Farm) and I are really looking forward to this conference! We're coming from the new Groundswell Center for Local Food & Farming in Ithaca. Is there anyone in the area who might be able to put one or both of us up on the floor or a sofa? Lemme know - thank you.
