After breakfast we are delighted to have Myles O'Brien as our guest speaker. Myles' presentation topic is "Local Food Matters". Have we lost our connection to food? And why does it matter? Explore the evolution of our relationship to food, and why growing and eating local foods may matter more now than ever. Learn how current and future initiatives in our community can create a more resilient and sustainable food system.
Myles O'Brien works on sustainability issues for the City of Richmond Hill and as a volunteer in Stouffville, where he lives with his wife and kids. His graduate research explored food as a connector between people and their environment. Since then Myles has been involved in various local food initiatives, including farmers markets, organic farms, and community gardens.
