Linfield hosted a plethora of guests this weekend for its Good Life Conference from Oct 10-11. Although the conference was sponsored by Linfield’s Sustainability Grant Council, the conference focused on the overall idea of what makes people experience happiness and the good life.
Members from all over the United States came to Linfield in order to give their perspective for the conference. One of which were two members of the Green Compass who travel across the country and spread awareness about Genetically Modified Foods and how to properly farm. Justin Cutter and Matt Bertken presented their workshops but also drove all the way from Ohio in a vegetable oil-fueled greenhouse.
