35th Annual Sustainable Agriculture Conference 2026

Pasa Sustainable Agriculture Conference 2026: Hosted by Pasa Sustainable Agriculture, the 35th annual edition of this flagship event will take place on 5–6 February 2026. It is one of the largest and longest-running gatherings of farmers, food system advocates, educators, researchers, and community leaders in the United States dedicated to sustainable farming and resilient food systems.

Purpose and Objectives

The conference aims to empower farmers and communities with knowledge, tools, and connections to build a healthier, more sustainable food system. Objectives include advancing regenerative farming practices, fostering local and regional food networks, addressing climate resilience in agriculture, and promoting equity and inclusion within the food system.

Key Activities

The program spans two days of diverse activities including workshops, panels, and presentations across topics like soil health, climate adaptation, sustainable livestock management, food justice, and community-supported agriculture. A highlight of the event is the Farm Innovations showcase, where farmers present unique tools and techniques that improve efficiency, reduce waste, and support land stewardship. Networking opportunities, exhibits, and community-building sessions enrich the experience for both rural and urban participants.

Significance

As agriculture faces increasing climate and economic pressures, the conference serves as a vital platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration. It is significant for its ability to bring together stakeholders from across the food system—from farmers and researchers to policymakers and home gardeners bridging perspectives and practices to advance sustainability and resilience.

Expected Outcomes

Participants can expect to leave with practical strategies for improving farm operations, a deeper understanding of the links between agriculture and climate action, and stronger networks across the farming and food community. The event is designed to spark collaborations, inspire adoption of sustainable practices, and strengthen collective efforts to create equitable and resilient food systems.
