Join Us at the "Food for Thought" Dinner Seminar featuring Gary Hirschberg of Stonyfield Farm on Jan. 23, 2012

New Directions Collaborative is pleased to partner with the The Food and Health Forum in launching the “Food for Thought” dinner seminar series featuring Gary Hirshberg, the Chairman, President and CE-Yo of Stonyfield Farm on Monday, January 23 at 6:30 p.m. Participants will enjoy a three-course dinner and a glass of wine at the Blue Moon Evolution restaurant in Exeter, NH, an award-winning restaurant serving local and organic food. Gary will share his thoughts about the myths around the production of “cheap” food including the nutritional, environmental and social costs that consumers don’t see at the check-out line. He will present a “win-win-win-win-win formula” for sustainable food production which protects all stakeholders including shareholders, employees, farmers, consumers, even livestock.

Following Gary's talk, New Directions Collaborative will facilitate conversations among participants on why and how organic and local food supports a healthier society and what we as consumers and as a community can do to play our part. This event is sponsored by Veris Wealth Partners.

They want to inspire and educate communities to help reestablish the link between what we eat, where our food comes from, and how it affects our health.
