Buying Local

Caroline Owens, Owens Farm

Buying local is the best way to eat well, foster community connections, reduce reliance on  the industrial food system, and teach the children in your life where food really comes from.  But, how do you work food-gathering into your already busy life?  What's the right timing for seasonal food?  How do you store it?  Where do you find your farmers?

Caroline Owens from Owens Farm will share practical strategies for success,  based on  customer conversations over the 20 years that she and her husband have been selling grassfed meats.   Produce, dairy and meats will be covered.
