The South Dakota Local Foods Conference provides education and networking for both producers and supporters of local foods. This ever-growing conference is a broad-spectrum event aimed at creating a better local food system in South Dakota. It celebrates South Dakota farmers, eaters, and food systems professionals who are committed to developing resilient communities and equitable food systems through sustainable agriculture, robust partnerships, and community education.
As we near the end of 2025, we will celebrate successes and encourage the creativity and flexibility needed to recharge us and our work as we navigate disruptions in our food system, shifts in federal grants and programs, economic strain and food insecurity in South Dakota.
Accommodations
We have a limited number of rooms at the Best Western Ramkota Hotel available for conference attendees at a rate of $159.99/night + tax. Please note that Aberdeen expects a large number of tourists this weekend for hunting season - it’s better to lock in your hotel sooner instead of later.
