2026 CT NOFA Winter Conference Slated for March 7
November 14, 2025
We’re excited to announce that our 44th annual winter conference will be taking place March 7, 2026, at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. It will be proceeded by 3 days of virtual workshops, March 3-5.
Tickets include access to all virtual workshops, the in-person conference on March 7 (including lunch), and exclusive access to all virtual workshop recordings for 3 months after the conference. Tickets are available now and in several formats:
- $70 – CT NOFA Members
- $70 – Accredited Organic Land Care Professionals
- $90 – General Admission
- $100 – Bronze Supporter Ticket (this ticket helps to defray the cost of lunch for scholarship attendees)
- $120 – Silver Supporter Ticket (this ticket helps cover the conference and lunch cost for scholarship attendees)
- $140 – Gold Supporter Ticket (this ticket fully funds an additional scholarship ticket for someone who would otherwise be unable to attend)
We’re deeply appreciative of those who are able to ‘pay it forward’ by choosing one of the Supporter tier tickets. By doing so, we are able to make scholarship tickets available to those who might not otherwise be able to attend.

Advocacy News: May 2026
The Good News: CT Senator Chris Murphy has introduced a bill (bipartisan and bicameral) to increase funding for Agricultural Management Assistance to $30 million and to expand the eligible uses for these funds to include “soil health improvements, composting, implementing organic farming, and food safety certification in addition to existing authorized uses such as water management structure and soil erosion control.” Let’s thank Senator Murphy for introducing this bill!
The Bad News: The Farm Bill passed the House of Representatives on April 30, despite 320 food, farm, and conservation organizations, including CT NOFA, voicing our opposition to a bill that does not fix SNAP, does not support new and beginning farmers, and does not adequately support conservation programs or organic agriculture. Now it goes to the Senate and we need to urge both of Connecticut’s Senators to reject this Farm Bill.
Our Vision for a Future of Resilient, Plentiful, Healthy and Locally-Grounded Farming and Food
In concluding its annual retreat, the Northeast Organic Farming Association Interstate Council (NOFA IC) reaffirms the values that have grounded our work for 55 years.
Our vision is that every person is able to live their life with healthy food, clean water and air, community, livelihood, dignity, and purpose within the means of our life-giving planet. We seek that vision on every level, from our households and farms to our communities, states, bioregions, nation, and world. For that vision to be fulfilled, every person, no matter their origin or circumstances, must have all their basic human needs met without degrading the air, water, soil, ecosystems, and climate which we have been given and on which we depend for our lives.
