We request that all participants bring a reusable water bottle and reusable hot drink mug to use throughout the weekend. We will not have disposable cups available so if you want to enjoy coffee, tea and water throughout the weekend you must bring your own cup/mug/bottle! Thank you for helping us to reduce waste at our event. It is also advisable to bring a raincoat or umbrella because it is a short walk from the conference venue to the place where meals will be held. We will also have a "take one -- leave one" book table so consider bringing along any agriculture related books or magazines you'd like to pass along to a fellow farmer!
