Working Together: Cooperative Agriculture & the Power of the Collective

From the venue:

Join Georgia Organics as we host a lively panel discussion about the history and future of cooperative agriculture models in Georgia and the Southeast.

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from Eric Simpson of the West Georgia Farmers’ Cooperative, Terence Courtney of The Federation of Southern Cooperatives, and Matthew Epperson of the Georgia Cooperative Development Center as they each share about their respective organizations and knowledge gleaned from their experiences in working to develop and manage cooperatives focusing on agriculture, land ownership, and small businesses.

The presentations will be followed by a conversation between the panelists moderated by Ahzjah Simons of Sevananda Natural Foods Market and include questions from the audience.
