The Organic Commodities & Livestock Conference (OCLC) is a one-day conference hosted each March by the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association and NC State, designed for commercial-scale growers of commodities, specialty crops, and pasture-based livestock, and other growers, educators, extension agents, and agronomists from the Carolinas and beyond to learn, network, and explore opportunities in organic agriculture. Each year’s conference features a full day of educational sessions, farm visits, research updates, panel discussions, and networking. In 2025, OCLC was held at NC A&T State University’s Farm Pavilion in Greensboro, North Carolina on March 3rd. In 2026, OCLC will be held at the Chatham County Agriculture & Conference Center in Pittsboro, North Carolina in March 10th.
