Join us for an evening that explores the vital connection between food production and a healthy planet! We'll kick off the event with a special film screening of Save Our Wild Isles: Hungry for Change, followed by One Last Farm. After the films, stick around for a panel discussion and group conversation. It's the perfect opportunity to learn, connect, and be inspired by a vision of sustainable farming that benefits both nature and society. See you there!
