[QUOTE="Crofter64, post: 7514188, member: 87060"] Vermont is an interesting place.I have been to the Vermont Pasture Network winter conference and Vermont organic farming conference many times. 15 years ago there was so much optimism in grass-farming and dairy. Kids who had gone off to University were coming home with Phds and such and joining the family farm. Then there was a palpable shift- the big corporations got into the grassfed / organic dairy sector and crushed the little guys, again. The NOFA ( northeast organic farming association) reminds me of a Canadian magazine I used to get called Harrowsmith. It was a bit like ACRES written for back -to -the- landers and farmers and has slowly switched to writing for suburban gardeners with a veg. patch and a couple of hens. Lots of photos of beautiful homes in perfect settings. The NOFA conference has a similar feel to it and I no longer wish to go. Didi Pershouse is giving a webinar course with Wlater Jehne- it was quite pricey so ai skipped it. Is anyone taking it? [/QUOTE]
