Keynote Panel: History of Cooperatives & How We Learn From Them
We Are Better Together: A Look at Communal Agrarian Organizing and Popular Educations
Olivia Cleveland is the Southeast Organizer for the National Young Farmers Coalition and currently lives in Huntsville, AL. Olivia originally hails from Lincoln County Tennessee, and has spent the past few years working alongside farmers in Tennessee, Alabama, and across the region to bring support, representation, and avenues for advocacy to the agrarian South. Presently, Olivia's work life looks like organizing farmers and community leaders around advocating for the Young Farmers Million Acres for the Future campaign ahead of the 2023 Farm Bill. Her non-work life looks like loving on her 3 cats with her partner, reading in the sunshine whenever she can, and bringing a special Southern charm wherever she goes
