Event

Forefront: CAL Speaker Series
Session Topic: Whole Grain Supply Chain

Speakers: Erin Meyer, Rachel Bernier-Green, and Andy Hazzard

Date:Sunday, November 15th
Time: 1:00 p.m.  3:00 pm (CST), hosted virtually through Zoom (this event will not be recorded)

The LOCAL supply chain, that is.  You may have noticed that flour was in short supply at the beginning of the pandemic.  This, along with increased interest in personal health and the local economy, meant many baking at home turned to local, small scale producers to fill the gap.
Join moderator Erin Meyer of Basil's Harvest as she sets the stage for a baker, farmer, and food-system dietitian to discuss their personal experiences working with and growing specific grains, and explore the challenges they face doing so. Plus, you'll hear details of how each business did the "COVID-pivot"

Learn details about each business: Rachel Bernier-Green's innovative and socially-minded bakery 'Laine's Bake Shop in Chicago; Andy Hazzard's sixth-generation Hazzard Free Farm (and mill!) in Pecatonica; Erin Meyer's diet-conscious Basil's Harvest; and their combined work with the Artisan Grain Collaborative.  You'll come away with a better understanding of the important relationship between farmer and baker, and about how the practices around regenerative agriculture and whole grains can improve soil health, human health, and impact local economies.

This free event will be held virtually live through Zoom on Sunday, November 15th. This event will not be recorded so live via Zoom is the only time to catch the speaker.
