A nationally recognized speaker\, Dr. Camarota offers keynotes and training sessions on leadership and management to a wide variety of organizations. Anton is a faculty member at the University of Denver and Colorado State University\, where he teaches graduate classes in research methods\, management systems analysis\, and sustainable business leadership.

SUMMARY:Grow Your Own Produce:  Warm Season Crops\, Edible Flowers\, & Attracting Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:In May\, the weather typically gets warmer and many flowers are blooming. We will discuss reliable varieties of warm season crops\, including Tomatoes\, Squash\, Peppers\, and Cucumbers\, to grow in your garden that will produce well despite our cool summer evenings. Enhancing warm microclimates and providing protection are two strategies for increasing production of these heat loving plants. Many of these plants require insects for pollination. In this class\, you will learn about pollination\, pollinator insects\, and flowers that attract these companions to gardens. We will also highlight edible flowers\, their functions in the landscape\, and recipes. This class will also cover common weeds in the garden. Students will learn how to these plants reproduce and how to discourage these plants in their gardens. \nThese classes are available as a five class series ($100) or as individual events ($25 each). 20% off discount for People’s Food Coop members – just be in touch with Marisha by email at marisha.permaculturerising@gmail.com to get the discount code.

SUMMARY:The Future of Foods: Great Tasting\, Healthy Foods for a Low Carbon World
DESCRIPTION:What is for dinner in the new carbon economy? The food industry is among the three largest emitters of greenhouse gases. Clearly the food system must transform operations to reduce its carbon footprint and help avoid the worst impacts of climate change. \nSustainable growth requires a transformation in food systems through adoption of ag innovations\, commercialization of plant-based meat substitutes\, and dietary changes as well as policies and dietary guidelines that promote sustainable and resilience agricultural supply chains and consumer choices. How the public thinks about and accepts new food products is key to creating market demand for healthier and low carbon food.  \nJoin LightWorks and the Swette Center for Sustainable Food Systems at Arizona State University and SSF in a 90-minute exploration about how sustainable food companies are leading this transition and can scale sufficiently to lower climate impacts and what research and nonprofit centers are doing to aid the global transition to sustainable\, healthy and culturally appropriate food choices. Panelists include Walter Robb\, former Whole Foods Co-CEO\, Rebekah from Impossible Foods and Daniel Vennard from the World Resources Institute. Join SSF and LightWorks at Arizona State University in a 90 minute exploration of this critical topic.

SUMMARY:Botanically EcoDye Silk Scarves
DESCRIPTION:Botanical printing uses historical methods to capture colors\, textures\, and shapes found in nature – resulting in stunning plant portraits on fabric. Leaves are layered onto natural fabrics\, tightly bundled\, then steamed or boiled. This environmentally gentle process permanently transfers botanical pigments without synthetic dyes\, inks or paints. \nTextile artist Anna Zell will lead you step-by-step through the eco-printing process. At the end of the day\, you’ll take home your own eco-printed silk noil and either crepe de chine or charmeuse silk scarf. You’ll have the knowledge to make more for yourself or as spectacular gifts for others.
