La Cosecha, one of the largest dual language conferences in the country, brings together educators, parents, researchers and practitioners supporting dual language enrichment programs in New Mexico and across the U.S.  La Cosecha will offer you the opportunity to share experience and knowledge, as well as a time to network and “harvest” the best of our multilingual/multicultural communities.
