The Buzz on the Guelph Organic Conference
We had a fabulous weekend at the Guelph Organic Conference Feb 1-3rd. Thanks to the many of you who came by our table to visit - we really enjoyed the conversations we had. Stimulating ideas...good questions... For the many of you who signed up for our ebulletin and are receiving this for the first time, WELCOME! If you'd like to receive our magazine and gain access to the thousands of seed varieties in our Member Seed Directory, join us!
Some staff highlights from the conference:
- Sue Chan's workshop on Attracting Wild Pollinators to Your Farm
- Conversations at our table about genetics, seed saving, bee friendly farming practices
- Pollinating the World forum with Susan Chan, Fran Freeman, and Darcie McKelvey
- Meeting with new farmers excited about biodiversity and sustainable growing practices
- Watching kids get excited about the pretty heirloom beans and native bee habitat on our table display
- Stopping by the booths of all the fantastic Canadian seed companies at the Trade Show
We hope to see many of you at Seedy Saturdays across the country in coming months. Stop by our table - our staff and volunteers always love to talk with you!
