Edmund Williams, President, Lehr Innovations, LLC will be the featured speaker of the event.
“Edmund Williams is a civil engineer who aims to change the way we produce food through ecosystem engineering. He was an inaugural fellow of the Knowledge Exchange for Resilience Fellowship and inventor of the LEHR Garden.
Functional ecosystems serve to remediate many environmental problems, and regenerative agriculture offers hope for repairing ecosystems, while still feeding humanity. Implementing regenerative agriculture in urban areas offers a new set of challenges and opportunities.
In his talk, Williams will discuss a new way to look at technology and how it might open up opportunities for a local, urban, regenerative food movement.”
A light lunch will be served.
