An Interactive Seminar Series
Want to become a more active food citizen? Want to have more of a say in our food system?
Do you care about gardening, shopping locally or our climate and curious to learn more?
Join us for a dynamic series of three interactive workshops exploring food system action at individual, community, and regional levels. Featuring expert guest speakers, hands-on activities, and follow-up mentoring, these sessions will spark ideas and support a locally led food project into action.
These workshops have been supported by FRRR - Foundations for Regional and Rural Renewal
