About the event
Continuing one of the most popular sessions at last year’s Oxford Real Farming Conference, this networking hour will bring together generations, sectors, and interests in a diverse, inclusive, informal space.
We will welcome new entrants and young people who are passionate about the politics and practice of food and farming and invite them to connect with others already established in the sector.
Soil Association, Sustain, Roots to Work and Emergent Generation, together with other youth and food and farming-focused networks, will be inviting friends and partners to engage in this evening of intergenerational knowledge sharing.
The session will be structured to help match you with your interests and leading figures, mentors in the industry. Everyone interested or passionate about agriculture, rural life, food, education, or policy is welcome! Come and meet new people and build new connections.
You just need an in-person ticket to the conference to attend, and to RSVP here.
