Kentucky
OAK Annual Conference
Register now for OAK's 15th Annual Organic Farming Conference, Cultivating Connections: Growing Organic Together for 15 Years, January 30-31, 2026, at Kentucky State University's Harold R. Benson Research and Demonstration Farm in Frankfort.
OAK’s annual conference includes a growing audience of hundreds of Kentuckians and neighbors active in the region’s food systems: farmers, researchers, nonprofit professionals, federal and state agency partners, technical service providers and conscious consumers working collectively to build a resilient local food system for all. Collaboration among these diverse voices, grounded in the connection to Kentucky farms, soil and communities, provides a rich foundation for learning and growth.
The 2026 conference program will feature two full days of inspiration from local and regional speakers, useful Trade Show resources and abundant networking opportunities to empower and support farmers and food system innovators. The conference theme for #OAK2026 is Cultivating Connections: Growing Organic Together for 15 Years. The primary focus of the OAK conference agenda will be on-farm production systems, techniques and practices, with the interwoven threads of community, conservation and collective action inseparable from the sustainable agriculture movement.
