Join us for the second annual Whidbey Farmer’s Forum, hosted and sponsored by Organic Farm School and Whidbey Island Grown. The forum will include two morning and two afternoon classes, with multiple class options per time slot, mid-day panels, and a happy hour at 4:30pm. Soup will be provided for lunch. Some of the class spaces are unheated, so please bring layers!
Cost will be $25 to help cover costs of speakers’ travel.
Class registration will open on Jan. 3 - check back here or look for email and social media communications from OFS and WIGC for registration link.
Our class list will be updated as new speakers are booked. If you would like to offer a class or have any questions, please contact us at shannon@whidbeyislandgrown.com and judy@organicfarmschool.org.
