This will be the occasion to visit 150 horticultural exhibitors!
Meet, eat and discuss….
Food.
How important is local, fresh food to our lives? Why do we garden on roofs? What more can we do as a group and on a personal level?
Our partner from South Africa, Sam, will introduce himself and his organization’s work regarding food security.
