SMALL FARMS CONFERENCE10:00am - 4:00pm Central Time
Knox Community Church
451 18th St., Brandon

Small Farms Manitoba connects eaters with farmers from across the province. Whether at a doorstep, a farmer's market or an independent grocery store that sells the products of these farmers, these connections develop into relationships and food choices that are built on trust and transparency.

Consumers across Manitoba are seeking to learn more about the ownership, management and production methods of farmers across the province. By learning about the people and farming practices behind our food, Manitobans can all make better decisions about the food on our tables.

The second annual Small Farms Conference will have all of the highlights from the 2015 Conference, including a giant potluck lunch, 12 participatory workshops and tons of networking time. 

A shuttle will be available for a small fee to transport participants from Winnipeg to the Conference - this shuttle will leave by 7:30 am and return to Winnipeg by 8:00 pm.

Follow the Facebook page for details as they are available, including speakers and workshops.
