Eat Local Week 2025 Keynote Dialogue, "How to Fall in Love with the Foodshed"

  • UU Church of Sarasota 3975 Fruitville Road Sarasota, FL, 34232 United States (map)

Everybody eats, but most of us are deeply disconnected from the source of our food and the people who grow it. In this keynote for Eat Local Week 2025, Community Harvest SRQ founder Don Hall and current Program Director Andrew Hudson will engage in a spirited dialogue about why cultivating regenerative local foodsheds is so important right now, how they each fell in love with our Sarasota-Bradenton foodshed, and what they envision for its future. Ask your questions, meet others interested in this topic, and find out how to get involved.

The two will begin by ‘catching up’ - what has happened both locally and globally since Don left Transition Sarasota to give leadership to the national and now international Transition Towns movement in 2016. Over the past nine years, on the plus side, acceptance of the reality of climate change has become ubiquitous, and at the same time, many problems have deepened. It all points to the need for building local resilience.

This is one of many events taking place during 2025 Eat Local Week.
