Northern Michigan Small Farm Conference

2025 NORTHERN MICHIGAN SMALL FARM TOUR

Monday & Tuesday, August 18 & 19, 2025

Farm tours and hands-on experiences are among the best ways to learn about the craft and science of farming. This year’s Northern Michigan Small Farm Conference is bringing that and more to our community of farmers and agricultural and ecological innovators.

Save the date! This year’s conference hub will be the Leelanau School in Glen Arbor, Michigan. Farm tours will take place throughout Leelenau County. More information to come soon.
