Over three days, more than 300 farmers, growers, food producers, educators and agricultural advocates will gather in Cedar City, hosted by the Red Acre Farm, to foster discussions over empowering and improving our local food systems and economies in Utah. There will be keynote speakers focusing on farming, ranching, permaculture, food preservation, organic and biodynamic practices, a seed exchange to share varieties, opportunities to cross-pollinate with farmers and food advocates to bolster our local food network in our state, with fun evening  events like a Farmer Guild Barn Dance Mixer and a state-wide farmers market on that Saturday. There are too many incredible events over the course of the three day conference to miss this opportunity to build a better food system together. Early bird pricing ends Dec. 15. Scholarships are available.
