Michigan Family Farms Conference 2019
The MFFC will be held on February 9 at the KVCC Texas Township Campus. This year we are really excited to offer an extended workshop that includes a lunchtime tour to the Food Innovation Center
AND
The Culinary and Allied Health Building! The MFFC is a forum to network, learn and build sustainable family farms but also a space to learn about agriculture for your own home as well. Our event includes a keynote to be delivered by Melvin Parson, founder of We the People Growers Association. Urban Farmer and visionary Melvin Parson tells his inspiring story of how the gift of a small plot of land and supportive friends turned into an organic agribusiness supplying 15 Southeastern Michigan restaurants. In this session, Melvin will share how “Changing the Soil” can lead to life-affirming and fruitful results for you and your community. Register for the conference at
