Northeastern University
Boston, Mass
Presenter Spotlight: Curtis Stone

Curtis’ farm, Green City Acres is located in Kelowna, BC, Canada and was established in 2010. In an eight month growing season, the farm generates over $75,000 per year on only one third of an acre. This is done by specializing in a select group of high value, quick growing crops that allow for multiple plantings in the same beds as well as calculated intercropping strategies. The farm has been recognized internationally, as flag ship example of how profitable and productive urban agriculture can be.
Curtis and many more skilled leaders are part of the lineup for the 4th Annual Massachusetts Urban Farming Conference!

In one day you will have the opportunity to network, learn and share with hundreds of attendees, participate in sessions with experts from many sectors, and meet with our fantastic Opening Keynote-Greg Watson and Closing Keynote, Karen Washington
