“Organic Connections will provide strategic information to help farmers survive through the current hard times”, says Miller. "Whether it’s looking at the markets, analyzing our current methods, diversifying into new or value added ventures or learning about the new Canadian Organic Regulations (COR), producers need to know what they can do to stay afloat in tough times.”

Organic versus natural, consumers are confused by misleading food labels. Certified organic is a third party verified system. Who verifies the natural claim and what exactly does it mean? We’ll cut through the hype to get to the facts.

Dynamic workshops and presentations will focus on the themes of quality, accessibility, environment and community. Organic Connections features the largest Organic Trade Show on the prairies. Consumers will especially enjoy the refreshing and delicious “Taste of Organic” event on Sunday.

We can’t talk about the future of organics without considering our children. In addition to the plenary and workshop sessions there will be special activities to involve and motivate students on the road to healthy eating.
