The webinar is free for all to attend. Guests are welcome to donate to Ra's GoFundMe campaign to start his own teaching farm in Oregon.

A link to the webinar will be provided to all who register. As space is limited, there is a maximum of five tickets per registration please.

2020 LIVE ANNUAL MEETING CANCELLATION NOTICE

After speaking with our legal team and our board of directors, we have made the decision to cancel the 2020 LIVE Annual Meeting on April 28th due to the COVID-19 coronavirus situation. This decision was not taken lightly, as we know many of you look forward to this event for education and collegiality. However, we were to have speakers flying in from other states, the event was to have taken place during Oregon's state of emergency, and the outlook for April and May is uncertain.
