The Winter Conference is the premiere gathering of New Hampshire’s organic food and agriculture community: farmers, gardeners, localvores, educators, and consumers joining together. This year the keynote speaker is Frances Moore Lappe’ author of 18 books including “Diet for a Small Planet’ and co-founder of three organizations including Food First: The Institute for Food and Development Policy and, more recently, the Small Planet Institute, a collaborative network for research and popular education.
There will be over 40 workshops, including some led by teens and programs for Youth and Children. This year herbalists from the NH Herbal Network will be leading several of the sessions. Plan on strolling through the popular Green Market Fair where vendors and a farmers’ market offer all things green and organic. And once again there will be a delicious potluck lunch. Bring a dish for six to pass, or you can purchase a plate.

Local energy committee members, municipal and school staff/volunteers, energy-related contractors and interested citizens from around the state and region convene to discuss and learn about local energy projects, issues and solutions. A highly acclaimed aspect of the conference is the hands-on tours of MVHS’s biomass heating plant and the impressive energy retrofits to the high school building. Don’t miss the opportunity to network with and hear from your peers, learn from energy experts working in the field, visit the diverse exhibitors and address your energy related questions to those already navigating this complex field. Brought to you by the New Hampshire Local Energy Working Group, the LES conference provides critical resources for local governments and school districts across the state.
