Our records show that this program is technically sold out. Due to our attrition rate and inexpensive tickets, it is possible we may have some tickets available the day of the program. However, we cannot guarantee this. If it is a program that you would really like to attend, please arrive at the venue 20-30 minutes before the program is scheduled to begin and check at the ticket desk for availability.
“Eating is an agricultural act,” wrote Wendell Berry. Our food and ingredient choices determine to a great extent how the world is used. The freshest, purest, best-tasting food is produced by local, small-scale organic sustainable agriculture. The goal is to take care of the earth for future generations by supporting small family farms. A distinguished panel discusses how this is already happening in Chicago and elsewhere. Abby Mandel, founder and board president, Chicago’s Green City Market, is joined by Tod Murphy of the Farmers Diner (Barre, Vermont); David Cleverdon, Kinnikinnick Farm; Gerald Adelmann, Openlands Project; and Sarah Stegner, chef, The Dining Room, Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Chicago.
