Our Webinar Series Launches Tonight
Join us at 7 p.m. tonight for a lively discussion about regenerative agriculture
Free Tickets Still Available… Don’t Miss Out
We are launching the new Local Food Forum’s “Better Dialogues” series tonight at 7 p.m. central with an informative and engaging conversation about regenerative agriculture and its immense benefits for our food system and environment.
Co-host Chef Sarah Stegner and I are thrilled to get this started, with thanks to our supporters at Mariano’s, Chicago Chefs Cook, Landmark Pest Management and Prairie Grass Cafe.
Thanks also to everyone who has already registered. There are plenty of free tickets still available, though, so please click the button below to register so you don’t miss out. And if you can’t attend live, please register anyway… we’ll be sending the recording to all registrants.
Here are the salient details:
Co-hosts: Bob Benenson (yes, that’s me in the 3rd person) and Chef Sarah Stegner of Northbrook’s Prairie Grass Cafe.
The Conversation: It’s about the immense benefits of farming practices that promote soil health, combat climate change, and in many cases incorporate the pasture raising and humane treatment of farm animals.
The Panel: We are super-proud of this amazing guest lineup:
• Paul Lightfoot, general manager of Patagonia Provisions and Board chair for the Regenerative Organic Alliance
• Marty Travis of Spence Farm and Down at the Farms in Fairbury, Illinois.
• Greg Wade, head baker and managing partner at Chicago's Publican Quality Bread
• Tim Brown of Broadview Farm & Gardens in Marengo, Illinois.
Will There Be Q&A? Yes.
Will I Be on Camera? Yes, if you want to. The webinar series is intended to build community and inspire conversation, so we’d love to see your smiling face — though you can keep your camera off if you’d rather.
Audio Off: We will need everyone to keep their audio off to ensure that there is no extraneous background noise. If you are called on to participate in the Q&A, we will open your mic.
Zoom Link? We’ll be sending it out to all registrants later this morning.
Sold? Here’s that registration link again.
We hope to see you on Zoom tonight.
Such a great session, Bob! Thank you so much for coordinating this. I look forward to future webinars and continued conversations!
