Building Resilient Communities through Local Food

Join FoodShed Cooperative and Association of Women in Water, Energy, and Environment for a hands-on conversation about the role local food systems play in building a more sustainable and resilient future. Learn how Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs support local farmers, reduce environmental impacts, strengthen regional food security, improve health, provide access to fresh, seasonal (delicious) produce, and foster community connection. Through a guided CSA box exploration, practical tips for storing and using seasonal produce, and a simple cooking demonstration, participants will discover easy and exciting ways to incorporate local food into their daily lives. Whether you're a longtime CSA member or simply curious about local food, you'll leave with ideas, recipes, and inspiration for making climate-friendly food choices that benefit both people and the planet... and the power of food in bringing people together. Participants have the option to purchase a five-item farm box for $20, filled with fresh, seasonal produce to take home and enjoy!
