conference this week

January 17th, 2010 by caitlyn

We’re pretty excited about attending this year’s pre-conference for EcoFarm! The topic this year is: The Business of Sustainability: Growing Health, Wealth, and Ecological Integrity in our Food System. There will be workshops about everything from the legal aspects of a small farm business, to worker-owned cooperative models, to good planning and record keeping. Yes! Let’s put our heads together and make connections and compare notes.

We’ve been doing a lot of talking over here lately – trying to figure out the most sustainable way to go about this project, where to go from here, how to shape it into something that will make a real contribution. It’s always a nice comfort to remember that these efforts of ours are part of something much larger; there are many of us working together to chip away at these big goals from all different places and positions. I think this conference will certainly be that kind of inspiration.
