The Our Farms, Our Future conference, hosted by SARE (Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education) and NCAT/ATTRA (National Center for Appropriate Technology) will bring together the nation’s diverse agricultural community: farmers and ranchers, agricultural professionals, agribusiness, students, researchers, scientists, agency representatives, and nonprofit leaders. Every 10 years SARE hosts a conference to look at the progress of sustainability in agriculture, and to understand our trajectory for the future. The conference will feature:
- Dynamic keynote speakers
- Engaging panel sessions where you will hear from new and established farmers and ranchers
- Farm tours
- Project posters by SARE grant recipients
- Breakout sessions on topics such as cover crops, soil health, grazing for beef and dairy, urban agriculture, success stories in farming and ranching, and water challenges
- A pre-conference session led by NCAT/ATTRA for military veterans featuring previous Armed to Farm program participants
SARE’s mission is to advance innovations that improve profitability, stewardship and quality of life by investing in groundbreaking research and education.
