https://nofany.org/conference/workshops/
Another year of an online conference BUT it does cut down on
the cost, and the excitement of driving on snow/ice covered roads to get
upstate where the conference used to be held. There will be about 70 workshops
and events scheduled so if you’re interested in organic gardening (and tips to
deal with climate change), eating healthy, and the politics of
farming/food, this just might be the place for you!
