“Locally Adapted Food Systems”

Finding whole, organic and unprocessed foods is becoming an increasing challenge in our hurry-up fast food culture.

But that might be changing.

In “Locally Adapted Food Systems,” presenter Randel Hansen discusses how more and more people are pursuing alternatives such as farmers markets, agricultural endeavors, community and household gardens. Hansen, a food systems planner, will also discuss actions, tools and resources for expanding the economic, ecological, social, and health benefits of local food production and consumption.

This presentation will take place from 6:30-8 p.m. in room S2964 on the Lake Superior College campus.

Past “Green 101” sessions have included such topics as “Greening Your Home: From Energy Efficiency to Renewable Energy Options,” “Solar Technology Introduction” and a make and take rain barrel workshop.

More information is available at www.lsc.edu/Green101.cfm. “Green 101” is presented by Lake Superior College – Workforce and Community Development.
