North Conway Gathering

The weekend will include farm work helping our local farmers at High Water Farm and supporting Mount Washington Eaters and Growers, join, workshops focused on soil science, nutrition, health equity and climate justice, mindful movement, and community-building circles. Meals will be created by our local climbing friend and chef Preston Claiborne, as well as 3x Chopped Champion and James Beard semifinalist Evan Hennessey. We will have a panel discussion with local climbers, grassroots climate activists, NH farmers and chefs. And of course, climbing!
