2020 Conference Sponsorships It starts with a seed...
It would be quite simple to write an extended metaphor about your gift and its role in growing Georgia Organics. With the consistent impact of each of Georgia Organics’ programs, we don’t have to theorize, we can just give you numbers that demonstrate the successes of our team as they’ve worked across Georgia to connect Georgians with healthy food from Georgia farms.

Our Annual Conference brings all of this work together each February by bringing constituents together in one location to learn, engage, and collaborate to advance our work in Farmer Services, Farm to School, and Georgia Food Oasis. Last year’s conference in Tifton drew more than 500 attendees, and we expect to bring at least 800 people to Athens Feb. 7-8, 2020. These results assure our donors our future impact is rooted in our past performance, and for 22 years we’ve been in the position to succeed thanks to the investment of people, companies, and foundations that prioritize our community. With these results, we can assure our donors that their investment in Georgia Organics will impact communities, schools, students, and farmers across Georgia in myriad ways.
