Right Time

CONFERENCE Good Food Conference & Trade Show

It seems as though fate has it in for me. Whether it's an unplanned, long-awaited reunion of friends in the Cheeseboard line, or the first sustainable food conference in LA held just a month before I return from the Center for Agroecology & Sustainable Food Systems. Timing is just right.

Laden with key experts and pioneers within southern California food, I hope to hit up these talks:
