This weekend I attended the NOFA-NY organic farming conference in Saratoga.
OMG wow.
It was so inspirational to hear people's stories of getting started, having animals, bringing soils back to life... I failed at the whole small talk/networking thing, which was half the point of attending, but was expected. I did, however, take copious notes and got a slew of websites to visit. Every day I came home practically bursting with excitement and ideas.
Farming is still a budding dream, but I feel fairly confident that sometime in the next 6 years, this will move from an idea to reality. Now I just have to get over my chicken phobia.
yay!! So proud of you :)
