Welcome to the 35th annual California Small Farm Conference, a week of learning, inspiration and movement-building. Our hybrid conference features over 50 online workshops, videos, and interactive forums, as well as in-person gatherings around the state. Admission is on a sliding scale. Please pay what you can to help make this event possible and accessible to everyone. All events are virtual except those listed "Gathering" on Thursday & Friday.
The session will begin with a short presentation about SB 907 (Pan/Caballeo/Calderon/McCarty), which would provide the resources needed to offer high-quality CalFresh/EBT access at every certified and tribal-run farmers’ market in California. Following this overview of the bill, its status, and opportunities to advocate for its funding, the session will move into a forum discussion seeking ideas and input regarding the best practices to be promoted through technical assistance for equitable customer access and produce inclusion.
