About the Event
The Small Farm Tech Expo is back for its fifth year—bringing together small-scale farmers and advocates to share tools, practices, and systems that actually work for small farms. This annual gathering is a full-day, hands-on event where you'll see tools in action, learn what others are using, and bring home ideas you can actually put to work. Whether you’re growing 20 acres of row crops or just tending a quarter-acre market garden, come learn about practical, impactful, and appropriately scaled Ag Technology.
AGTECH DEMO + TRADESHOW: Walk around, talk to people, get your hands on equipment and software before you ever think about buying anything. This year, there will be have two dedicated spaces: one for software and one for hardware technologies.
TWO WORKSHOP TRACKS - DIGITAL & HARD TECH: Curious to learn more about marketing & sales tools, satellite imaging or agrivoltaics? At the Tech Expo, there will be sessions on:
