2026 American Elderberry Conference
Sponsorship Opportunities

Do you want to show support for this year's American Elderberry Conference? We would be thrilled to have you as a sponsor! What will your donation be part of? With sponsorships, we will be able to better provide funding for attendees to have memorable and educational experiences. Sponsorship money will go towards helping bring in some of our keynote speakers, providing hands on projects, and ensuring we can keep our dollars local to support the Mt. Vernon community.

 

This year we are accepting monetary sponsorships but also a chance to be a sponsor by just sharing some of your awesome American elderberry products. Read a brief overview of each option below and then fill out and submit the correct form.
