Description

Let's take back our food system

Producers, graziers, innovative agriculturalists: gain valuable knowledge about viable market opportunities and production techniques that are not based on consolidation and commoditization.

Learn from speaker presentations, a discussion panel and a social hour with refreshments. Network with regional and national producers, and leaders in regenerative agriculture. Enjoy a meal of locally produced meats, grains, vegetables and other products.

Featuring:

  • Will Harris, White Oak Pastures: Making the break from commodity agriculture as a self-reliant, diversified farming operation, that builds soil for future generations.

  • Dan Kittredge, Bio Nutrient Food Association - Understanding the connection between regenerative farming/grazing practices and nutrient dense food. How to make informed choices about the food we eat.

  • Dr. Sina McCullough, Author “Hands Off My Food!”: How commoditizing our food system has caused the current health crisis in our nation. The truth behind “what’s in our food”, how it got there, and who’s responsible.
