About the FacilitatorThis gathering is facilitated by Vane(ssa) M. Kuhn, founder of Behind the Beet and a certified health coach. Vane’s vision is not to position herself as the expert, but to create an outdoor kitchen experience where people can come together, cook side by side, and connect with each other and their food. Her philosophy of health and wellness centers on connection: connecting with our food, with the earth, and with each other. She believes that when we gather around seasonal ingredients, exchange knowledge, and prepare food together, we nourish more than just our bodies; we nourish community.

About the LocationCottonwood Urban Farm is located in Panorama City, Los Angeles, dedicated to the intersection of food, community, and education. Founded in 2012 by LA native and educator Elliott Kuhn, the farm provides a resource for locally grown food and sustainability by reconnecting individuals with the process of agriculture. CUF prioritizes social responsibility and works with several non-profits in the Los Angeles area to facilitate the transformative process of taking food from seed to the table. The farm has evolved over the years from a small vegetable garden to market gardening, educational outreach, community composting site, and a food distribution hub during the pandemic. The farm's success is a testament to the transformative power of local food production and the collaborative efforts of the community. <a href="https://www.cufarm.org/" title="https://www.cufarm.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.cufarm.org/</a>
