We make an effort to bring eclectic speakers that represent different facets of the issue to provide a well-rounded perspective to the attendees.

Hiveland, a company working to connect bee keepers with farmers to improve crop production and reduce the loss of pollinators.
A Q&A with refreshments by Zingermann's will follow the panel discussion.
Hope to see you there!
