NOFA-NH Winter Conference, Workshop & Art Proposal
For 25 years, NOFA-NH has gathered farmers, gardeners, and food system advocates who believe another way is possible — one rooted in healthy soil, fair economies, and communities that care for one another. Our very first conference welcomed Wendell Berry, whose writing on land, community, and the true cost of industrial agriculture helped shape the vision this organization was built on. This year, as we mark that milestone, we do so not long after his passing, and we carry his call to imagine a better future even in difficult times: Berry once wrote, "Be joyful though you have considered all the facts." That spirit is our theme. Our roots run deep — in twenty-five years of practice, relationship, and hard-won knowledge about what it takes to grow food without poisoning the land or the people who depend on it. And our horizon is wide — toward more inclusive economic models, land access rooted in justice, and food systems built on care rather than extraction. Resilient Roots, Radiant Horizons is both a tribute to where we've come from and an invitation to imagine, together, where we're going next.
