NOFA-NH's 50th Anniversary
Celebrating Five Decades of Organic Farming, Gardening and Food

ANNOUNCEMENT: Events Postponed Until 2022

As an organization, we are deeply committed to community health. Due to ongoing concerns about the increasing rates of COVID-19 infection, especially among children, NOFA-NH has made the difficult decision to postpone both our Family Pizza event at Brookford Farm on September 12th as well as our fundraising dinner at Colby Hill Inn on October 3rd. We will announce new dates for the events and communicate them to everyone as soon as we have more information to share.

We will issue refunds for the events during the week of September 13th for our members and friends who have registered.

We are grateful to our hosts, sponsors, exhibitors, musicians, artists, Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, and those who pre-registered or planned to attend the events for your commitment to celebrating this milestone with us.

We hope you will be able to join us in commemorating 50 years or organic farming, gardening, and food in the Granite State when the events are rescheduled in 2022.

From all of us at NOFA-NH, thank you for your ongoing support and understanding.

Sincerely,

Team NOFA-NH
