Some foods and farming practices are good for people and the planet, others are bad. Are you getting the whole story to know which is which?
About this Event

Many fantastical claims are made about our food and how it is produced. Some are accurate, some are half-truths, some are outright lies. Wouldn't it be nice to know the difference and learn how and why these claims and future ones might be questionable? Join us to learn tools and principles to think more critically about our food and food production, and where to go to get unbiased, research-based information. Register now to save your seat, only through ufsarasotaext.eventbrite.com.

Don't pay more for limited added benefit. Don't advocate for change that is not meaningful and might actually be harmful. Organic, permaculture, monoculture, regenerative, industrial-farming, soil health, cow belches, carbon sequestration. What's the truth about the myriad of claims on the news, in our social media feeds and on the labels in stores? Let's find out together!

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If it sounds like a no-brainer that something is bad, maybe you're not getting the whole story.
