In this keynote for Eat Local Week 2025, Community Harvest SRQ founder Don Hall and current Program Director Andrew Hudson will engage in a spirited dialogue about why cultivating regenerative local foodsheds is so important right now, how they each fell in love with our Sarasota-Bradenton foodshed, and what they envision for its future.
