Livestream the 2017 Young Farmers Conference!

The 2017 Young Farmers Conference is your opportunity to engage with a gathering of beginning farmers, chefs and leaders in the food and agriculture movement to explore practical approaches and innovative ideas for changing our food system. If you’re unable to join us for this year’s conference, you can watch from home! Select sessions will be streamed live–and we’re looking for a few dedicated fans to host watching parties! If you’re interested, please email yfc@stonebarnscenter.org. For more information, visit the Young Farmers Conference webpage.

The 2017 Young Farmers Conference is your opportunity to engage with committed change makers and thought leaders: farmers, chefs, scientists, activists and others who are committed to a more just and sustainable food system. It’s your chance to connect with your community of peers and forge lasting bonds that will help you on your road to farming and cooking.
