About the event
The Northern Kentucky Forum is hosting a discussion of sustainable agriculture and new concepts in agribusiness. We will talk about the growing farm-to-table movement and the need for a year-round source of fresh food. Regional farmer's markets are a part of the mix of providing those fresh vegetables and some local restaurants center their menus around locally-sourced products.
Our panelists will discuss these and other topics and take your questions.
