Conference Criteria
Eden Streets promotes urban farmers coming together. Networking with experienced farmers who may have solved the challenge you are facing may save you years of frustration and propel you forward in your farming journey. Most powerfully, these exchanges can happen on an operating farm as urban farmers meet, share, and work together. Conferences and web meetings can also be a great way to connect with others.
Eden Streets is an international organization with an initial focus on North America. We appreciate that your travel time and funds are limited. Therefore, we recommend only those events which will be most helpful to you as small farmers in urban or suburban settings who are working with people who are sidelined in the community. We will gladly post events that meet the following criteria:
-
The organization hosting has a regional or national scope or reach.
-
The theme of the conference centers around the needs of small farmers.
-
The conference has at least a component of social mission or social justice.
-
The organization hosting the conference is aligned with Eden Streets’ values.
-
The conference supports natural farming and regenerative agricultural principles.
We look for events that share credible farming know-how. The conferences also provide breakout spaces for us to connect in a meal or social hour engagement. If you know of conferences to recommend for our community, please send me, Farmer Karl, Karl@EdenStreets.org. We look forward to meeting you soon, whether online, at your farm, or at an in-person gathering.
