Welcome to 2014!! We here at Ten Rivers Food Web anticipate
a lot of dialogue and action within our local food system this year. To
kick things off, we will be holding a series of meetings throughout our
counties to assess the needs of our local producers. Please join us at
our Lincoln County Designing the Food Web, a farmer and grower convening on Saturday, January 25th in Toledo.*
Designing the Food Web (Lincoln County)
Saturday, January 25

The purpose of this convening is to learn what our farmers and growers
believe are the most significant assets, opportunities, challenges, and
barriers in our current food system. As an attendee, you will have the
opportunity to discuss the design of your food web, meet with other
folks growing food in your community, learn more about Ten Rivers Food
Web, and enjoy lunch on us! We truly need your voice to help us create
