Conferences

Our Welsh Organic Conference is held every October and is a great opportunity to make your voice heard on the issues that matter to you - and of course to catch up old friends and make some new ones. See the report of the 2011 conference.

Shows

We also co-ordinate the Organic Food and Farming Centre at the Royal Welsh Show, bringing together advisory and support organisations, organic certification bodies and key marketing organisations, literally under one roof. We also have a stand at the Winter Fair and attend a number of regional shows each summer.

Workshops and seminars

In addition, we also hold a series of smaller, regional meetings and workshops around Wales, dealing with a range of topic including organic conversion planning, ectoparasite control and business management to mention but a few.
