MinneAg is a statewide network of community-rooted farm and food systems organizations that prioritize agricultural practices that nourish people and the planet. IATP houses MinneAg and co-leads the network with partners from the Land Stewardship Project, MN 350, and the Minnesota Farmers Union. This spring, we are convening an in-person gathering at the Minnesota State Capitol.

Join MinneAg Network partners for a moderated panel exploring the intersection between agriculture and climate resilience. The event will begin with a brief mixer where MinneAg members and attendees can meet each other in an informal Member Fair, with legislators and state agency staff invited. The mixer will be followed by a panel moderated by Danielle Isaacson of the Minnesota Farmers Union, which will highlight the experiences of Minnesota groups and farmers who are working at the intersection between agriculture and climate resilience, with time for a Q&A with attendees. Local snacks will be provided.

Panelists will include:

• KaZoua Berry, Farm Director, Sustainable Farm Programs, Big River Farms/The Food Group
• Brad Jordahl Redlin, Manager, Agricultural Conservation Services, Minnesota Department of Agriculture
• Nick Olson, Program Organizer, Farm Beginnings, Land Stewardship Project
