Join the conversation on building a stronger safety net before the next crisis comes.About this EventFarming has always required risk. But today, Hawai‘i's farmers and ranchers are facing more threats than ever — from extreme weather, wildfire and drought to invasive species, rising costs, market volatility, and disruptions to water, energy, labor and transportation.A single disaster can wipe out months, or years, of investment.How can we make farming less vulnerable without asking farmers to carry all the risk themselves?Join the Hawai‘i Agricultural Foundation for EAT THINK DRINK 34: WHEN THE HARVEST IS LOST — Building a Stronger Safety Net for Hawai‘i's Farmers, an important conversation about what it takes to protect Hawai‘i agriculture — not only after disaster strikes, but before it happens.Featuring keynote speaker Jennifer Nelligan, Chief Program Officer for the , the evening will explore how conservation, risk management, crop insurance, disaster assistance, financing and public policy can work together to help farmers prepare for losses, recover and remain in agriculture.Following the keynote, Brian Miyamoto, Executive Director of the , will moderate a conversation with guest panelists bringing the discussion home to Hawai'i and exploring the challenges, resources and opportunities for building greater resilience across our local agricultural community.PANELISTSMichael Chock, Honolulu County, USDA Farm Service AgencyBridget Kapahu, Hawaii MeatsJ.B. Martin Jr., Pacific Islands Area, USDADean Matsukawa, Hawai‘i Department of Agriculture & BiosecurityWe’ll also examine a bigger question: Should Hawai‘i rethink how it invests in agricultural resilience? If farmers are essential to our food security, land stewardship and rural communities, should more resources be directed toward helping them prepare for disaster rather than simply responding after the damage is done?Join the conversation, help shape a more resilient future for Hawaiʻi agriculture, and enjoy a chef-curated tasting celebrating the bounty of our islands’ land and sea.----------------Our guest chefs will highlight locally sourced, ocean-grown, or ocean-connected ingredients from Hawai‘i.Brooke Tadena, Executive Chef, Prince WaikīkīAndrew Le, Executive Chef, The Pig & The LadyEARLY BIRD TICKET SALES END September 30!Early Bird: $95 | General Admission: $125Teacher DiscountSpecial discounted tickets for HIDOE teachers!
