NOFA Summer Conference August 9-11, 2019 Hampshire College, Amherst, MA

Nutrition Matters | Soil Health Builds Human Health

The NOFA Summer Conference is a dynamic and diverse gathering of people working at the intersections of organic agriculture and gardening, food justice, land management, education, carbon sequestration, environment and health.

Even as Hampshire College is going through a tumultuous period, their summer schedule is business as usual. We are grateful that they are sticking it out even while things are rocky and we have constant communication with them as they manage their way forward. We hope they find a solution to their woes that gives them long term stability and allows their cutting edge culture of creativity to continue to thrive.

We are excited to host our 45th annual NOFA Summer Conference with keynote speaker, Sandor Katz for a festive summer weekend August 9 -11, 2019 at Hampshire College in Amherst, MA. Always a family friendly event, you can bring the whole family to enjoy workshops for adults, kids and teens, over 60 vendors, live music, games and amazing food!

Registration is now open and we hope you’ll join us this summer!
