More Details on the Vermicomposting Conference

As I mentioned before, there is an upcoming one day conference in Illinois.  It looks like it will be one day long and will cover basics of composting as well.  Very reasonably priced ($15-$60, depending on when you register and what activities you take part in), if you’re in driving distance.  Conference content includes:

Keynote Speaker, Dan Holcombe, President and Founder of the Oregon Soil Corporation, with over 20 years of composting experience of small to large scale projects.

and a “Build Your Own Bin” program.  More details.

I think these mini conferences are great.  Does anyone know of one of these in Colorado?

Speaking of conferences, I also looked into the US Composting Council conference (in Houston during late January this year), after I read a great interview by the folks over at Redworm Composting.  It seems more in line with other professional conferences I’ve attended, at least in terms of conference registration fees.  However, I didn’t see much about vermicomposting (one entry, “Technical and Financial Viability of Compost and Vermicompost from Swine Manure”, in the program).
