Thursday October 16, 2014 The Land Institute-Internationally Famous and Locally Obscure

The Master Gardeners of Greater Kansas City present: “The Land Institute-Internationally Famous and Locally Obscure” Thursday October 16, 2014, 6:30 pm with featured speaker Josh Svaty at Country Club Christian Church, 6101 Ward Parkway, KCMO. The Land Institute is working to reverse the antagonism between agriculture and nature. Using nature as the standard, Land Institute scientists are developing perennial mixtures that can produce food in harmony with the wild. Healthy, natural prairie ecosystems provide the information to direct our paths – information we in large part disregarded when we chose the agriculture of annual grains some ten thousand years ago. Free and open to the public. No registration required. Door Prizes. For further information call 816-665-4456.
