The Organic Growers School Spring Conference is a one-of-a-kind event that brings people of all walks of life together for a weekend of learning and networking near Asheville, North Carolina. Since 1993, the OGS Spring Conference has been the best way to kick-off the season, with over 70 classes and hands on workshops per day, on a variety of topics, from starting your first vegetable garden, baking bread, and saving on home energy costs, to raising your own goat herd and fine-tuning aspects of your commercial farm operation.
