This year’s Tilth Conference will bring together hundreds of farmers, organizations, food system activists, researchers and educators to learn, work and play in Bellingham, Washington on November 16, 17 and 18. Tilth Alliance and the Tilth Conference work to create and support a sustainable, healthy, and equitable food system.

Digging into Ag Viability: Furthering Understanding and Fostering Collective Action

This year the Tilth Conference will be devoted to exploring the complex dynamics of operating a small, family-owned farm in Washington.  Through sharing stories and perspectives, and engaging in deep reflection and dialogue, we hope to get at the roots of the viability challenge.  Let’s use this valuable time together to explore how we might bring multiple interests together to form a powerful collective voice that can speak out in support of our farms and the growers and workers that rely on them for their livelihoods.

What to Expect

This year’s Tilth Conference will feature three days of activities, including a full slate of producer-focused workshops, a keynote plenary featuring farmers from across Washington, a two-day trade show, a farmer-to-farmer Farm Walk, an ag viability roundtable, and social events to connect with your community.

Tilth Conference speakers present on a range of topics covering a variety of scales, experience levels and interests — from diagnosing plant health problems to building a stronger farm website, from navigating flood recovery to growing new crops in Western Washington.
