Poster Session

This will provide attendees with another way to share and exchange information. All are welcome to join! If you plan to attend the conference in October 2023, please consider creating a poster for display at the conference venue. Your poster can then  be viewed by other conference delegates at their leisure, as well as, at a designated time for poster presenters and other conference attendees to interact. There will be an opportunity during a late-afternoon or evening session to give a 5 minute oral summary of your poster and have a brief Q&A.

See our Poster Session Guidelines for more information.

Night Bazaar & Affinity Groups

This late afternoon session is an informal time for participants to host a table and showcase their work via brochures, publications, artifacts, tools, etc.

This is a free event in addition to the paid resource fair and will only be available for this specified time. All are welcome and encouraged to bring something to share about your work in a meet-and-mingle type of venue. There will also be the ability to organize affinity groups during this time.

Sign-ups will be available during registration if you are interested in hosting at table during the Night Bazaar or coordinating the meeting of an affinity group.

Seed Swap

If you would like to participate in this session, please bring seeds to contribute! Feel free to collect varieties of seeds from your farm, garden, or neighbors to share what you think have merit or are special. We ask that you bring them in small bags (if possible 100-300g depending on the size of the seeds), that are labeled, and that the seeds are open pollinated (self-collected and able to be saved year after year).

You will have the chance to share about these seeds with other participants and bring home some of their seeds.

You can still purchase seeds at the conference as well.
