DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Loren Cardeli\, President and Founder\, A Growing Culture  \nLoren Cardeli is President and Founder of A Growing Culture (AGC)\, an organization that promotes ecological agriculture in the United States and around the world. A farmer\, consultant\, and graduate of Warren Wilson College\, Loren’s expertise is in sustainable food systems\, farmer-led research\, and “farmer participation” approaches to extension and outreach.
