Webinar – Regenerating the Market: Direct-to-consumer Models Connecting Farmers and Families

January 17

With growth comes complexity. As a result of globalization and intricate trading channels, we have been increasingly disconnected from our food suppliers and the people behind the ingredients in our kitchens.

Join us on January 17th to explore how to localize supply chains and improve transparency to create more regenerative, regionally-rooted food systems. During this webinar, we will hear from two farmers and a food industry entrepreneur who are actively working to implement new approaches in their communities. We will be joined by grain farmer Tannis Axten from Axten Farms, wine producer Rachel Lightfoot from Lightfoot & Wolfville Vineyards, and Sheena Russell, founder of Made with Local snack company. Get your questions ready! You will also have the opportunity to ask the farmers anything during the last part of the webinar. We invite you to listen to this podcast interview with Tannis for inspiration!

The webinar will run for 90-120 minutes, and will be facilitated by Communication and Food Innovation Strategist Isabelle Marquis, RD. The event will be held in English, with real-time interpretation in French. A recording of the webinar will be available in both languages after the event.
