Local Event
We’re so excited for you to join us for the 2024 Carolina Meat Conference! This is the go-to conference for pastured meat and dairy professionals and has sold out every year since our beginnings in 2011! This year, for the first time ever, the Carolina Meat Conference is combining forces with the Southeast Value-Added Dairy Conference for the ultimate meat and cheese event of the year. This means you’ll gain access to even MORE programming and networking opportunities for both meat and dairy producers. So go on and get your tickets, and we’ll see you there!
