Forward from another list I'm on: ************** Those of you who are plugged into the wider
organic
community are probably familiar with MOSES (Midwest Organic and
Sustainable Education
Services, which puts on the largest organic conference in the country
every February
in La Crosse, WI. A fair number of us from the Midsouth attend that
event.
SORCE (Southern Organic Resource Center for
Education) is a
newly-forming entity that hopes to capitalize on what we’ve learned
with
MOSES and expand organic agriculture and local foods in the South.
Plans
include an inaugural conference in New Orleans sometime around the
first
weekend in December, 2010. A committee and been formed to move on this. I’m attaching a blog post from Juli Brussel,
currently
A Program Leader for NH Cooperative Extension (She and her husband plan
to move
permanently to Missouri.) However, if want to get further information
on
SORCE, the organizer at the heart of the effort is Sue Baird,

South
of
the North for Organics
On
March
18, a bunch of people got together on a conference call. Nothing earth
shattering about that. Happens all the time. But I could feel the earth
move
slightly—I know. I was there. The immediate result was we birthed a new
entity…a brain child, a child of hope and determination for all
southern
organic farmers. Welcome SORCE to the world, folks. That’s Southern
Organic Resource Center for Education. And it’s a whole new
community—a virtual barn-raising. We are gathering our strength and our
ideas and our needs about farming and eating organic in the south. And
we
invite you to the party. Juli
