Farmers, restauranteurs, chefs and consumers are tapping into the idea that producing, buying and cooking using our abundant local resources is good for CNY's economy as well as the environment! Farm to table eating provides the freshest, most delicious foods for the table and also provides terrific opportunities for all of us to participate in sustainable practices. Visit Syracuse and CNY Fresh's Elizabeth Judge, will talk about all the endless selection of products grown, raised and produced locally and the locations that YOU can visit to find these products including dairy, maple, livestock, produce, honey, wine, farm-to-table restaurants and more! She will be joined by farmer, Erin Hull from Lucky 13 Beef and others who will talk about their personal experiences and dedication to this mission. Additionally, Theresa Evans from OCCRA will talk about what all of us can do to participate in sustainable practices. This program is part of the state-wide New York Reads: Drawdown program which provides your community with the opportunity to come together in conversation around science-based solutions that can help them take purposeful action with focus. By prioritizing discussions around the 100 most impactful solutions for slowing down climate change, citizens and whole communities can spend their time, energy and enthusiasm on making a true difference for their future.
