1/23/2024 – The Winter Vegetable Conference held at the Crowne Plaza Resort in Asheville every year is a long-running event sponsored by the NC Tomato Growers Association with program development and management by NC Extension. The event has satisfied the educational needs of the large-scale, wholesale oriented, mostly conventional farms in WNC. Very few small to mid-sized, direct market oriented, and organic/regenerative/biodynamic/naturally grown farmers attend. SOOOO, for February 2024, we have added a new track on the first day of the conference specifically for this group of farmers. In addition to the presentations, I think the large tradeshow and networking opportunities will be of interest. Program details below and here is the link to the Eventbrite page (Registration is $75)
