The Summit will feature first-class presentations from Joel Salatin, Tim Will, and Tom Philpott and ample opportunity for networking and planning. And, of course, good food!

Whether you're a long-time local food advocate or simply interested in learning more, everyone with a vested interest in the High Country food system is invited to participate!

Also at the Apple Barn in Valle Crucis on March 26, there will also be a free Seed Swap, in the lower-level space that is the ASU Agro-Ecology lab. The Lab will be open from 8:30 AM through 6:00 PM. All growers, gardeners and seed savers are welcome to bring what seeds they have to share, and come browse what others are swapping. People who register for the Summit are welcome to participate in the Seed Swap at any time during the day as well.
