What do you get when you bring together the best of local food and drink with one of the leading voices of the New Economy movement and one of our area's hottest bands? A one-of-a-kind event that can only be called a "Foodtrepreneur Showcase"!

 

Meet and mingle with the farmers, food entrepreneurs, and activists who are making our local food scene one of the most hopeful and happening things around, get inspired by Eat Local Week 2014 keynote speaker Michael Shuman, and celebrate the start of the new growing season while listening to the sounds of homegrown indie-folk duo Good Graeff.

 

$10 per person. Free admission for all who attend Sarasota County's 9th Annual Sustainable Communities Workshop. Vendor spaces also available: $40 for businesses, $20 for nonprofits. Both include a table, chairs, and two free tickets.
