The latest in the Book-to-Action series on the future of food is coming to Hayward this April.
The Sustainable Resource Fair combines ecological action with fun recipes, book panels, and a film for a full evening of entertainment.
The resource fair focuses on helping attendees try new recipes, supplied and demonstrated by Blue Heron Catering, and gain the information they need to either support sustainable agriculture in their area or improve their personal organic farming/gardening practices. Attendees will be able to try food samples and take away a lot of helpful information.
Aside from these promotional materials, a free copy of the central book of the fair, ‘Lentil Underground’ by Liz Carlisle, is available for people who register early. The book documents a group of Montana farmers who reject large farming practices to form a new company based on sustainable farming. A keynote address will be delivered by the author of the book, followed by speeches by David Olen, one of the subjects of the book, Dr. Larry Kushi of Kaiser Permanente, and Dr. Ricardo Salvador of the Union of Concerned Scientists.
The fair will be held on April 21 from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm at Hayward City Hall, located at 777 B St. Attendance is free to the public, but free Books are available in a limited supply only to those who register in advance.
