Growing Resilience Conference: Regenerative Food Forests in our Communities

Are you interested in learning about an interconnected solution to the challenges of food security, carbon sequestration, soil health, biodiversity, and climate adaptation?

If so, you’ll want to know about an upcoming event on food forests – diverse, multi-layered agricultural ecosystems that mimic natural forests – that offer a promising and underexplored solution to these challenges.

The event, at the Lodge in Fredericton’s Odell Park on April 18 and 19, will bring together a diverse group of people. We expect regenerative growers, Indigenous elders, academics, community organizers, municipal leaders and others who are interested in food systems and environmental problems.

This two-day conference will focus on a grass-roots approach to fostering community food forests in New Brunswick. The conference fee of $11 includes two lunches.

If the registration cost is a barrier to participation for you, or if you can’t attend but would like to join a new food forest information sharing group, please email Andrew Mathis at amathis@stu.ca.
