The Hydroponic Farmers Federation Executive Committee are excited to announce the 13th Biennial HFF Conference will be held from Tuesday 23rd July - Thursday 25th July, 2024 at Melton Entertainment Park (former Tabcorp Park).
Following the successful outcomes of the 2022 conference, we are very confident of repeating this experience. In fact, with the knowledge gained, we can’t wait to present the 2024 conference! We will continue to expand and develop the conference format for 2024, offering our trade members the opportunity to invite their grower customers to conference, to learn, share and network with like-minded people; potentially extending the reach of this conference far beyond previous events, and throwing the conference doors open to non-HFF members.

Who are we?
Celebrating 26 years, the HFF grew from a small self-help group to the large association we are today because of the commitment we all have to furthering the hydroponic industry through supporting each other. Networking is the single most important function of the HFF; we provide the forum for this via Farm visits, our Biennial Conference, newsletter and representation at various levels. Membership is open to all commercial growers of hydroponic produce; there are also membership categories for suppliers to the industry and other interested parties.
The committee are very excited about the 2024 Conference; our 12th Biennial Conference. We continue to expand and develop the conference format, offering our trade members the opportunity to invite their grower customers to conference, to learn, share and network with like-minded people; potentially extending the reach of this conference far beyond previous events, and throwing the conference doors open to Non-HFF members.
