Description
The eighth annual Farmer-Chef Connection occurs on Monday, March 3rd at the Oaks Park Pavilion in Portland, and features Keynote speaker Gary Nabhan.

Dr. Nabhan's work moves from policy to practice, as his founding of the Renewing America's Food Traditions and Forgotten Pollinators campaigns demonstrate. He and wife Laurie Monti raise Navajo-Churro sheep, Black Spanish turkeys and native crops in the pygmy woodlands near Winona, Arizona.

The Farmer-Chef Connection continues the tradition of creating and sustaining relationships between growers and buyers.  This day-long gathering fosters collaboration and direct market opportunities for local farmers, ranchers, and food buyers who are committed to expanding and strengthening local and seasonal food networks.
