This year’s keynote speaker will be Paul Kaiser from Singing Frogs Farm in Sonoma County, CA.

Paul and his wife Elizabeth have been successfully demonstrating how to produce high volume, high quality vegetables in an inspiring no-till system since 2007.

Interested in a more concentrated study program?

Register for the conference and sign up for the all day intensive - a deep dive into no-till farming.

During the seminar, Paul and Elizabeth Kaiser will co-present the ecologically diverse farming techniques that have led to years of successful food production and a sustainable livelihood.

Valuable and practical techniques utilized to grow this ecological farm are on the agenda.

The Kaisers will take an in-depth look at establishing and maintaining beds and fields, how to transition from one crop to the next in a no-till system, and take you from the basics and beyond of managing an intensive, no-till system.

Please also consider joining NOFA/MASS for a quaint post-conference fundraising dinner with Paul and Elizabeth.

What better way to end the day than by connecting and enjoying a community dinner together.

When you contribute, you raise critical funds to help NOFA/MASS continue supporting amazing agricultural and food access programs.

Registration opens October 15th, and includes an amazing organic lunch!
