Growing Resilience Conference: Regenerative Food Forests in our Communities

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.
