Chefs, academicians, policymakers, farmers, and local sustainability practitioners (Green Bridge Growers, Unity Gardens, Rise Up Farms, Edible Michiana Magazine, Prairie Winds Nature Farm, and Center for a Sustainable Future) were all part of the mix.  Blend these ingredients, and the conference was outstanding for the all the learning and connections that were part of the day.
