This will be a sustainability-focused meeting! Please bring a refillable beverage container to minimize single-use items. Sylvia has provided 100% compostable dining materials for the event.
The agenda for the mid-winter gathering of TN Local Food / Middle Tennessee Farmers and ‘Friends of Farmers’ is tentative and still evolving. We encourage you to send any topics you'd like to see included.

Arrive for coffee or tea that is provided, but bring your own beverage container.

12:00 Lunch & Networking
Another great offering that will be graciously provided to us by Sylvia and her staff is a seasonal lunch with vegetarian and gluten-free options (with a blueberry something for dessert). People can break out into affinity lunch groups for discussion, for instance, what collaborative efforts we can initiate, what kind of organized future we will have, and what actions are next. Attendees are then welcome to mingle and chat with others afterward.
Please RSVP so we can plan food accordingly! And pass this message on to people who may be interested.
