Conferences and Other Events

Snowdrift.coop participates in various events associated with our mission and work.

Currently, our Communications section includes a list of conferences. Here we will discuss specifics about events we plan to attend and information about them in more detail.

We have sometimes organized local meetups, particularly in Portland, Oregon. We use tags to mark local areas within the Events category on our forum
