Request for Proposals – 2026 Annual Winter Conference
OnlineWe are currently accepting proposals for workshops for the 2026 Winter Conference Our theme this year is inspired by the Massachusetts Healthy Soils Action Plan, which focuses on how we can effectively conserve, protect, restore, and properly manage our soils throughout the state to improve the vitality of our environments and the health and quality of life of our community members. While the theme highlights “healthy soils”, we know that meaningful land work goes far beyond technical soil knowledge. That’s why we welcome proposals from a wide range of voices for a well-rounded conference; whether you’re a grower, educator, healer, food worker, researcher, artist, organizer, or simply someone with a meaningful relationship to land, we invite you to submit a workshop proposal!
