Hi Cam,
I'll be there! I just posted it on the Rockies region and soils forums, but I see you thought of sharing it on Permies long before I did.

Did you attend last year?

Nope, just heard about it last fall.
I've watch many of Gabe Brown's talks on YT and I'm looking forward to his in-depth breakout sessions.

I did just go the Western Colorado Food and Farm Forum in Montrose a few weeks ago.
Kind of disappointing, especially for the cost.
Mostly theory, not a whole lot of practical knowledge.
The best part was listening to and talking to the farmers who are actually doing it.

Hi Cam,

I was at the Montrose forum too. They used to have more options, dunno what was with the program this year, I've been every year since it began and learned a lot. This year, when looking at the program before registering, I figured it would mostly be making and renewing contacts this year, and so it was.

The upcoming conference in Delta should be worlds better, and I can't quite figure out how that is. But the catering has always been WAY better at teh Montrose conference. The Delta lunch last year was late and disappointing. Here's hoping there's an improvement.

Maybe I'll see you there.
