PRESENTATION FOR NATURALIZED HABITAT NETWORK ANNUAL BANQUET
Wednesday, December 2nd
7pm
Colasanti's in Ruthven
Jae Muzzin and Maya Ruggles will be delivering a presentation at the Naturalized Habitat Network's Annual Banquet. Here's a description: 'Food Security, Food Sovereignty, Food Democracy': What do these terms mean? Why are these concepts important? Through examples from their own experiences growing and foraging for food in Windsor, Maya and Jae will discuss the importance of food for community self-reliance and sustainability. Themes such as soil health, seed history, access to land and water, and resource- and knowledge-sharing will be central to their story of interdependence between food processes and social and environmental vitality.
Cost (includes complete buffet dinner): $22 for non-members; $20 for members; $12 for accompanied children.
