A Future of Food Security for All with Special Guest Ira Wallace
January 10 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EST
How can we develop systems to build community resilience, grow local agriculture, improve access to nutrient-dense food, share growing spaces, and mitigate climate disruptions?
All seven state chapters of the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA) have been working to develop food security programs and learning opportunities to address these questions. This winter, each NOFA chapter will host various workshops at our Winter Conferences that examine these topics.
To kick off the NOFA Winter Conference season, we have invited the 2023 NOFA/Mass Winter Conference Keynote Speaker, Ira Wallace, of Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, to discuss the importance of food security and how seed saving continues to play an important role in feeding our communities. We will also meet representatives from each of the NOFA chapters to learn more about the food security work being done in the Northeast states.
