At the Midwest Organic Seed Summit, Organic Seed Alliance and University of Minnesota will bring together organic farmers, researchers, and businesses to learn from each other, connect on a personal level, and identify opportunities to advance the regional organic seed system in the Midwest. On Wednesday, join at the University of Minnesota Farm at the Arb for a community building and organic market development session that brings together organic plant breeders, organic farmers, and retailers. On Thursday, there will be a workshop session for growers to learn about regionally adapted crop varieties bred for organic systems. Attendees will learn about emerging specialty crop varieties that thrive on Midwest organic farms, directly from the breeders and seed farmers stewarding these varieties, with emphasis on culturally meaningful crops.
