2010 OEFFA Conference

By Luci Beachdell | Monday, November 23, 2009, 08:23 AM

The Ohio Ecological Food & Farm Association will host their 31st annual conference on the 13th & 14th of February, 2010, in Granville, Ohio.

If you’ve never been to an OEFFA conference, and you have serious sustainable farming intentions, then you should seriously consider attending. This conference, “Growing with Integrity, Eating with Intention”, will feature speakers Joel Salatin and Ann Cooper. (And, on the subject of Joel Salatin, Wegerzyn MetroPark will be showing Fresh, the movie, on Monday, Dec. 7 at 5:30 pm. Fresh also features farmer Joel Salatin.)

In the past, OEFFA conferences have included:

Dairy Herd Health

Specialty Small Grains

Gardening for Maximum Nutrition

How to Establish a Food Stamp System

CSA Planning

Organic Certification

Diverse trade show with everything from milk to books

Marketing to the Restaurant Industry

Registration begins in December. And if you do go, let me tell you that lunch is usually delicious & local and there are only a few places to buy lunch in Granville. So either bring your own delicious lunch, or order lunch at the conference with your registration - they never have extra lunches the day of the conference!
