Front Range Eco-Social Solutions: A Bioneers Network Event

In an era of Black Lives Matter, Standing Rock, skyrocketing living costs on the Front Range, climate chaos, and even the more glamorous Times Up movement, the connections between race, food and other social justice issues are becoming ever more evident, and perhaps more dire. Join us as we learn from inspiring, diverse change-makers making waves on the Front Range in their work on racial equity and food justice. These accomplished panelists inspire with amazing projects that have changed the social and physical landscape in Denver -- from $1.5 million-dollar greenhouses, to preventing food waste by providing low-income families with fresh healthy food, to holistic farmers markets in food deserts, ensuring college students learn in the classroom as well as in the dirt while providing produce or to juicing for low-income communities and communities of color in Denver. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Join our panelists as we explore their work and engage in a conversation about what racial and food justice could look like on the front range.
