Join Newton Community Farm on April 30 as we welcome Orion Kriegman, Executive Director of the Boston Food Forest Coalition (BFFC) to share the story of the creation and ongoing work of BFFC. Building on the Community Land Trust model, BFFC has now established 14 food forest parks in Boston. These third spaces build community resilience, engage democracy, and strengthen civil society all while transforming vacant lots into edible public parks.

Come be inspired by this story of building community resilience, climate resilience, and a city more prepared to adapt to climate change.

This forum is made possible thanks to The Bard Family Environmental Education Fund.

Come hear the story of the Boston Food Forest Coalition. May it inspire you to ask: What is mine to do? The 7 pm talk takes place at the Campus Center Auditorium, Charles River Campus of UMass Amherst, 100 Carlson Avenue, Newton, Massachusetts.

This event is free but registration is requested. Parking is available in front of the Campus Center or where spaces are available. https://www.newtoncommunityfarm.org/events/forumplanting-seeds-of-hope
