Cost: FREE Presenter: Atina Diffley
Join local author Atina Diffley, for a conversation on agriculture and biological diversity that leads right to our plates and the land that feeds us. Atina and her husband Martin operated Gardens of Eagan from 1973 to 2008. Atina will read from her new book Turn Here Sweet Corn: Organic Farming Works and talk about biological diversity, her family’s experience as organic farmers when their original Eagan land was lost to development in the early 1990s, and the power of consumers to make a difference.
Turn Here Sweet Corn: Organic Farming Works will be available for purchase and a book signing will follow the presentation. You can read Atina’s blog at atinadiffley.com
