Welcome to the 31st annual ECHO International Agriculture Conference! This event brings together industry leaders, practitioners, researchers, and educators dedicated to eradicating hunger and improving lives through agriculture and community development. Our plenary, breakout, and workshop sessions offer valuable opportunities for learning and collaboration.
Attendees will have the chance to hear from speakers who share their agricultural challenges and successes, personal experiences, and transferrable principles for addressing food insecurity. Along with learning from presenters, delegates will also have an opportunity to gain hands-on experience at ECHO's Small Farm Resource Center during the afternoon breakout sessions. Networking with like-minded individuals is a key highlight of the conference.
Join us from November 12-14 in Fort Myers, Florida for this important gathering. (Check-in available on November 11th and 12th). Additionally, there will be an optional one-day post-conference workshops on November 15th. We invite you to celebrate more than 30 years of networking and learning together at this enriching event.
