SOWTH Conference

SOWTH is a network of Southern farmers and organizers committed to fostering bolder collective action for positive change in our regional food system. The SOWTH network was formed in part to fill the gap left by the 2019 dissolution of the Southern Sustainable Agricultural Working Group (Southern SAWG) with the goal of reestablishing a convening for farmers and advocates in our region. In 2023, a Regional Steering Committee of 30 agricultural leaders from this network came together to launch planning, and “SOWTH: A Regional Small Farms, Big Community Conference” was born.
