Interactive Farm Tours: Take a behind-the-scenes look at our three hosts farms. Aren’t you ready to network with fellow farmers and learn from your peers?

Easily Accessible: Since part of the programming is online, you are not limited by geography or time restraints. This type of programming is more convenient in every way.

On-Demand Learning: Even though the virtual event spans several days, you can learn at your own pace. Log on at certain times to hear your favorite speakers, and then you can revisit other topics when you have the time.
