Join Devon Wilson, founder and CEO of Sunlight Gardens, and Kirsten Clemente, Director of DeLano Farms, the working educational farm at the Nature Center, to learn about their journeys, seemingly different from each other, but both rooted in the love for the land, the soil and all life forms. Learn how healthy soil shapes strong farms, communities and futures in this talk that blends science, personal stories, and practical tips to inform and inspire.
This event is part of the Honorable Harvest lecture series, organized in alignment with the Kalamazoo Foodways Symposium, and inspired by the beloved Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass. Kimmerer describes the Indigenous principles and practices of the Honorable Harvest, asking us to give back in reciprocity for what we have been given. Join us in this lecture series to explore ways in which we can come together to nurture and restore the Honorable Harvest in our communities and in our every day lives.
Arrive as early as 5 p.m. to enjoy Taps on Tuesday, a happy hour-style event hosted by Kalamazoo Valley’s culinary and brewing students.
