Food and the Columbia Basin with Jon Steinman
Jon spoke to us about the major concerns with the industrial/global food system and what he has done about it. He gave an inspiring talk about re-introducing communities into their local food system by creating closer relationships between consumer and farmer. One of the ways he has tried to create this change is by forming the Kooteny Grain Community Shared Agriculture (CSA).
