This Independence Day weekend, we’re paying tribute to all the folks who grow the good food we eat, who are taking steps to grow their own, or maintain their properties with organic standards in mind. 
So we’re playing an encore presentation from our annual pilgrimage to the Northeast Organic Farming Association’s Organiconn conference – which was held earlier this year at Wesleyan University. 
We caught up with NOFA’s director, the event’s keynote speaker, as well as a number of other guests promoting organic practices and programs that are enhancing our state’s environment and public health, while engaging our youngest citizens to participate and enjoy the fruits and veggies they can raise and eat from their own personal, school, or community garden.
