The City of Escondido and Fresh Brewed Tech are partnering to bring the community of agricultural technology together to create new solutions through technology for existing problems faced by farmers at the first AgTech Hackathon this weekend.

The three-day conference—running from Friday, Oct. 21, to Sunday, Oct. 23, at the Synergy CoWorking Centre—will bring together farmers, technologies, community leaders, and engineers to learn about “today’s agriculture and food system problems and build solutions together with our local customers,” according to organizers.
