Bristol Aggie High School
Our goal is to bring farmers, food producers, fishermen, and service providers together to share knowledge and learn about innovations in agriculture. The steering committee that organizes the conference includes Bristol County Agricultural High School, Cluck and Trowel Farm, Coastal Foodshed, Massachusetts Farm Bureau Federation, NOFA-RI, OASIS on Ballou, Plymouth County Extension 4-H, Pocasset Pokanoket Land Trust, Rhode Island Nursery and Landscape Association and SEMAP. We hope you join us for a day of community, networking and learning around some of the most pressing issues facing our food system.
