| Past summits have been such a success that FPPC plans to take the show on the road. This year, FPPC plans on hosting three regional summits: one in the Chesapeake Bay area, one in the midwest as well as our annual conference in St. Petersburg, Florida. Each conference will focus on local issues and animal agriculture from that region. Please visit our site frequently for more information. Below are the tentative dates for each conference.
