Homesteaders of America Conference 2026 took place October 9–10, 2026.
It was held at Warren County Fairgrounds, 26 Fairgrounds Road, Front Royal, Virginia 22630.
The organizer identifies homesteaders and their families as the audience.
It is most useful for practicing and aspiring homesteaders and their families, since the program offered 30+ lectures, demos, and pre-conference workshops, with speakers such as Joel Salatin and Daniel Salatin of Polyface Farm who teach from working farm experience. Commercial growers looking for agribusiness or large-scale production content will get less from it, while families with children could bring them, as kids 11 and under were offered free admission and had their own classes.
Attendees at homesteading and farm events usually wear casual, practical clothing such as jeans, boots or sturdy walking shoes, and layers for an October fairgrounds setting that may mix indoor and outdoor sessions.
