Organic Conference by the National Organic Training Skillnet
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009
The National Organic Training Skillnet is holding a 1 day Organic Conference on the 3rd March 2009 in the County Arms Hotel in Birr, Co. Offaly.
The main theme of the Conference will be marketing and adding value at farm level or direct sales. We also aim to hold in conjunction with the Conference a "Meet the Buyer event" where registered Organic Producers can for a low cost have an opportunity to showcase their product range.
In addition there is an opportunity for both new entrants and existing organic producers to access specialist advise in areas ranging from processing, finance and conversion.
