A cool event for anyone who loves natural and organic foods!
The natural foods revolution of the past three decades has changed what we eat, where we shop, how we talk and think about food... and it has also created a second revolution in entrepreneurship, focused on the "triple bottom line."
Boston has long been on the front lines of those battles, with a lively community built around sustainability and food entrepreneurship, and a deep tradition of natural and organic food leaders like Erewhon and Bread & Circus.
Join us for this unique, informative and tasty event, as we celebrate the launch of Joe Dobrow's new history of the natural foods movement, Natural Prophets, by staging a food entrepreneurship panel discussion and snack food sampler, with featured guests including Trish Karter, founder of Dancing Deer Bakery. We'll have FREE samples from many local companies, including Late July Organics, Unreal Candy, Quinn Popcorn, Spindrift Soda, Equal Exchange, CogniTea, and Perfect Fuel Chocolate.
Co-sponsored by Food Sol, the food business incubator and food literacy program at Babson, and BostonEco.
Net proceeds benefit the New Entry Sustainable Farming Project, whose mission is to improve our local and regional foods systems by training the next generation of farmers to produce food that is sustainable, nutritious, and culturally appropriate.
Please note that ticket sales end at 3:30pm on the day of the event and will NOT be available for purchase at the door.
