An Evening with Michael Ableman
Feeding the Future: Stories, Images and Ideas from the Frontier of Food and Agriculture
Join renowned farmer, author and photographer Michael Ableman (www.fieldsofplenty.com) on October 24th at 6pm at Everett Station for a closer look at food, culture and sustainability gleaned from his travels across urban and rural landscapes in the US and abroad. Hear about the farmers and organizations that are providing real leadership and action on re-thinking how we feed ourselves and our communities.
Regional efforts at re-localizing our food system will get a boost from this dynamic discussion as we launch the second annual Eat Local for Thanksgiving campaign and gear up for Snohomish County's 5th Annual Future of Farming Conference: Breaking New Ground (www.focusonfarming.org).
The event is sponsored by Cascade Harvest Coalition with support from Snohomish County, the Northwest Agriculture Business Center, WSU Snohomish County, and Cascade Land Conservancy. Cost is $15 for non-members and $10 for members of Cascade Harvest Coalition. Seating is limited so reserve your seat today for this exciting event.
Where: Everett Station, Weyerhaeuser Room, 3201 Smith Avenue, Everett, WA 98201
