Dear Conservation Advocate,

As a leader on the front lines advocating for conservation and
sustainability, you have a great deal of influence on growers and your
partners in conservation agriculture efforts. We are reaching out to you
with a unique opportunity to participate in the *6**th** World Congress on
Conservation Agriculture (WCCA)* <http://www.wcca6.org> to be held June
22-25, 2014, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

The conference is focused on practical conservation applications and new
techniques attendees can take home to their farms or regions. These
applications and techniques will help conserve soil, water and other
natural resources while providing economic returns.

Please consider helping us by promoting this event through your channels.
We have an excellent lineup of champions for conservation for the
conference. WCCA's themes include:

* Growing More, More Efficiently
* Weatherproofing Crops
* Increasing Adoption Through Innovation

Check out *www.wcca6.org* <http://www.wcca6.org> for more information and
to register. Early bird registration with discounted rates is open for just
a few more weeks.

We've attached a few files that provide you some materials to help promote
the conference. These include:


    1. a short written summary of the conference
   2. a four-slide PowerPoint presentation
   3. an ad that is available for your use in newsletters
   4. a few website buttons for use on websites or in newsletters
   5. a logo for the 6th WCCA


WCCA also has a *Facebook
