Upcoming Events – NY & FL

Two interesting events coming soon

Just Food’s 9th Annual CSA in NYC Conference, Sunday, March 8 from 10am-6pm, New York, NY

The Just Food Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) in NYC Conference is an opportunity for CSA members from around the city and farmers to come together for a day of workshops and discussion. This year we are thrilled to present black-dirt farmer and MacArthur “Genius Award” Winner Cheryl Rogowski as our Keynote Speaker. Our workshop topics this year will include: a discussion on CSA and farm labor issues, keeping volunteers engaged throughout the season, developing a meat share and many more. There will also be a panel discussion with CSA farmers where attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions to learn more about what it means to be a CSA farmer.
