We had a wonderful time on the farm again this year. The great community turnout and delicious food and wine made this one of OFRF’s best outings to date. With more than 220 people on the lawn buzzing about the latest organic food and farming news, we never even stopped for a program this time!

Sylvia Tawse and Lyle Davis opened their home to us once again, as local friends and many Organic Summit participants gathered for a casual evening at their lovely Pastures of Plenty Farm.

Special thanks to Whole Foods Market – Rocky Mountain Region for jumping in with us and offering their generous support for this year’s event!
