About the Program
Working with local food is deeply rewarding and varied! This presentation draws upon the experience of young food heroes engaged in many facets of farming and sustainable food systems. Through personal experiences and shared accounts from five farmers and food producers in the Basin, Nadine shares why work in local food is so satisfying, impactful and empowering.
