Each year leading up to the conference, the Farmer of the Year committee selects a theme around which to solicit Farmer of the Year nominations. At the 2024 Marbleseed Organic Farming Conference, the theme will be grazing, and in 2025, the theme will be perennial agriculture.
This summer and fall, the committee is networking to surface names from both grazing and perennial agriculture communities and identify farmers to celebrate as practice leaders. They are also asking for nominations from the Marbleseed community and beyond.
This form can be used to submit nominations for both 2024 and 2025 Farmer of the Year candidates. Following the instructions below, please submit any recommended farmers who might be candidates for these themes.
Note: The Farmer of the Year nominations deadline for 2024 is September 30. After September 30, please use this form to submit nominations for 2025 only.
