Beyond Organic Farming
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at University of the Pacific, San Francisco Campus
(see times)
Organic farming is a form of agriculture that relies on natural sources of nutrients for crops (such as crop rotation, green manure, and composting) instead of synthetic or inorganic products for reasons of sustainability, health, and safety. Communities and sustainable farms can be connected through a transparent food system and we'll discuss the challenges and opportunities that organic farmers face in today's world and the goal of sustainable agriculture.
As a well-spoken and passionate advocate for local and sustainable food systems, Thaddeus Barsotti shares his farm experiences with Farm Fresh To You CSA members in a weekly farm newsletter, leads classes for future farmers, participates in panels/conferences and speaks with the media as an industry expert on progressive change in our food system. He is proud to connect more consumers to their local farms than his parents would have ever imagined possible.
