About the event

The Roots of Organic: Understanding the Past, Purpose, and Promise of Organic Agriculture
Join us for an engaging evening exploring the history and heart of organic agriculture!

Learn how the organic movement began, what the USDA Organic certification really means, and how organic farming benefits our land, farmers, water, and communities. Whether you’re a curious consumer, a backyard gardener, or a local producer, this presentation will deepen your understanding of how organic agriculture supports both human and environmental health.

Ethan Book, TOPP Education & Outreach Coordinator, with the Iowa Organic Association will share insights into soil stewardship, sustainable growing practices, and the economic and ecological value of choosing organic.

There will be time for questions and open discussion following the presentation—plus a chance to connect with others who care about healthy food and a thriving planet.

Free and open to the public. Come learn, share, and grow with us!
