About the Conference Location:
St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN will play host to SFA’s 2010 annual conference.  St. Olaf is a liberal arts college in the Cannon River valley, about 35-miles south of the Twin Cities.  St. Olaf may be best known for its world-renowned music programs and Norwegian roots, but it has also built a reputation for its dedication to sustainability.  A few examples of what’s happening on campus:  there’s an organic student-run farm, 100 percent of food waste is composted, and a wind turbine provides up to one-third of the campus’ electricity needs.

The entire conference will take place in the spacious student center, Buntrock Commons, which also houses the bookstore, a coffee shop, a host of meeting rooms, and St. Olaf’s exceptional dining service, managed by Bon Appétit. Every meal here features organic and locally produced foods such as Thousand Hills Cattle Co. beef, Valley View Farms milk and a cornucopia of vegetables from Cannon River/Hiawatha Chapter farmer members – and we’ll be able to taste it all.  This year we actually scheduled the conference lunch in the cafeteria – it’s that good!
