Thank you to our 2013 sponsors!
We believe that re-connecting people to their food is one of the very best ways to cultivate the local food movement and ensure its healthy and vibrant future. We do this by creating food adventures, farm and music festivals, fundraisers and underground events that celebrate small farmers, ranchers, fishermen, and food and beverage artisans.
The Cultivate Events mission is to strengthen our local food movement by creating experiences that captivate, educate, collaborate and cultivate.
Captivate
Eating good food in the company of community is fun - and so can learning about where it comes from. Cultivate Events feature live music, hands-on activities, engaging speakers and the opportunity to meet your farmers and food producers for a unique locavore experience.
Educate
Know your farmer. Know your food. Vote with your fork. When we know more about the food we eat and the people who grow it, we make informed food choices that positively impact not only our local food system, but also our health, social and economic well-being.
Collaborate
The local food movement isn’t just about you or me. It’s about US. By working closely with local farmers, food artisans and like-minded organizations, we strengthen our local food community and ensure its continued growth and sustainability.
Cultivate
When we build relationships with the people behind our food, everyone is better off. Invest a food dollar in your local food system, and you are planting a seed that cultivates our local food movement for generations to come.
