SUMMARY:Connecticut Compost Conference - POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:On behalf of the CT Compost Conference Planning Committee\, it is with disappointment that we inform you of our decision to postpone the CT Compost Conference\, originally scheduled for March 23\, 2020\, until Fall 2020. \n  \nOver the last few weeks\, we have been monitoring the spread of the COVID-19 virus\, discussing\, and reviewing the options. The CT Compost Conference is intended to provide education and networking opportunities. This cannot be achieved while authorities are warning people to avoid crowds and unnecessary gatherings. We do not want to put anyone at risk. With the Governor’s announcement\, it seems wise to reschedule the conference for Fall 2020. For those that have already registered and would like a refund\, please email ctnofa@ctnofa.org. Otherwise\, we can hold your registration for the fall. \n  \nFor the most up-to-date information from the State of Connecticut regarding COVID-19\, as well as guidance and additional resources\, visit ct.gov/coronavirus.

SUMMARY:REAL ORGANIC  SYMPOSIUM
DESCRIPTION:EVERY SUNDAY IN JANUARY 2021 \n\n\nA virtual series of talks and  panels with more than 50 prominent organic farmers\, scientists\, and climate activists \n\nSession 1: What is the Real Organic Project?\n\n\nIt’s not an ordinary certifying organization. Tractor rallies\, protests\, grassroots gatherings\, and passionate voices are the heart of the Real Organic Project. It represents the farmers who want to provide food the right way. No cutting corners. It’s a group of people who care about agricultural systems and are fighting to reclaim the word “Organic” — a word that was stolen by lobbyists and big agricultural corporations. It’s a movement to provide the transparency that we need. \n​
