This year’s Connecticut Northeast Organic Farming Association (CT NOFA) conference is called CULTIVATING AN ORGANIC CONNECTICUT: Closing Connecticut’s Food Gap with Urban Agriculture,
Small Farms and Gardens.
It’s on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 8:30 AM – 4:45 PM at Windsor High School, Windsor, CT.
The keynote speakers are Ian Marvey (co-founder and director of Added Value and its Red Hook Community Farm) and Dan Ross (executive director of Nuestras Raices – Spanish for “our roots” – in Holyoke, Massachusetts).
If all goes well, I’m planning on going! Are you heading over as well? I think you said you went last year, right?
Mangochild: I’m leaning towards going…if the weather is with with me and I can get up! It’s about an hour’s drive from here and begins at 8:30 AM. I really want to go, but am definitely a creature of convenience sometimes! I didn’t get to go last year–I had other plans, but I heard it was really good.
