14th Annual Organic Farming Conference: Grounded in Organics: From Soil to Market
January 23-25, 2025
Kentucky State University's Harold R. Benson Research and Demonstration Farm, 1525 Mills Ln, Frankfort, KY 40601.

OAK’s annual conference, now in its 14th year, includes a growing audience of hundreds of Kentuckians and neighbors active in the region’s food systems: farmers, researchers, nonprofit professionals, federal and state agency partners, allied service providers and conscious consumers working collectively to build a resilient local food system for all. Collaboration among these diverse voices, grounded in the connection to Kentucky farms, soil and communities, provides a rich foundation for learning and growth. We invite you to be a part of it!

 

In 2025, OAK’s conference program will feature three days of inspiration from local and regional speakers, a useful trade show and abundant networking opportunities to empower and support farmers and food system innovators. The conference theme for #OAK2025 is Grounded in Organics: From Soil to Market. The primary focus of the OAK conference agenda is on-farm production systems, techniques and practices, with the interwoven threads of community, conservation and collective action inseparable from the sustainable agriculture movement.
