Regenerative farming in the Hudson Valley, and the future of the NYC “Food-shed”

Regenerative farming in the Hudson Valley, and the future of the NYC “Food-shed”

Sunday January 10th, 7pm @ Bluestockings Bookstore in NYC www.bluestockings.com

Kevin Skvorak and Sarah Williford of Regeneration CSA; Four years of Regenerative farming in the Hudson Valley. Beginning with a detailed presentation of our own Permaculture-based practices, we'll share the connections we see between soil & ecological health, the health of our CSA members, climate change, long term food-security in the Hudson Valley, and a whole lot more. http://www.regenerationcsa.org/

We hope that other food organizers will come and help us sort out some answers to the following questions: What are the radical/transformative organizing opportunities and challenges within the local food movement? What is the future of sustainable local food for NYC eaters? And what can NYC people do to shape that future?

Bios: Kevin and Sarah farm, live, work, teach, and learn together at Regeneration CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) farm in High Falls NY. There they feed the chickens, grow veggies, teach Permaculture, do a few other chores each day, and do their best to be part of the solution.

They are also involved in the Hudson Valley Community and Agricultural Land Trust, a new non-profit working on farmland/foodshed protection and new farmer land access in the HV. www.HVCALT.org
