Organic Grower School Spring Conference and Local Food Shed

February 20, 2021 by Alena Talbot

The Coronavirus Pandemic has exposed weaknesses in many of our systems, including our food system.  Mari (MARY) Stuart is an Urban Homesteader and writer who believes eating more locally is a better food system model.  She is presenting a talk about shifting your food consumption to eat more locally at this year’s Organic Grower School Spring Conference, and she joined us for a preview of that talk earlier this week.

Listen to the full interview below:

That was Mari Stuart, an ecological landscape designer, educator, writer, and carbon farming project manager living in Asheville. A former Humanities professor, she now works in ecological landscape design, specializing in climate-resilient landscapes and climate-friendly agriculture planning. She is a regular contributor to Edible Asheville Magazine and the Mother Earth News blog, and writes about gardening, foraging, and modern homesteading at Make Gather Grow.
