Description

Climate Action Business Association and Green City Growers are teaming up for a very special panel discussion on the importance of reinvestment into the local food community.​ ​

As populations grow, we are tasked with many differing goals: create jobs, grow the economy, but at the same time make the city "greener" and more sustainable for the environment and human well-being.  Food entrepreneurs have the opportunity to make a difference beyond our dinner plate.
