January 9 - 11 the 9th annual Utah Farm and Food Conference, "Common Ground", will gather more than 300 farmers, ranchers, gardeners, biodynamic practitioners, permaculturists, educators, students, activists, chefs, seed geeks, foodies, and homesteaders from Utah and neighboring states. The conference will inspire learning, engaging, exploring, sharing, questioning, connecting, reflection, camaraderie, and reverence as a vibrant community gathers over three days. Our minds and hearts will be opened, souls and spirits will be nourished, and our wills will be strengthened to continue the sacred work of stewarding land, growing food, building local food economies, and cultivating relationships.
