A Growing Culture the frontline fight for food sovereignty, with Loren Cardeli

Loren Cardeli is my guest on Episode 79 of Inside Ideas with Marc Buckley. Loren Cardeli is the co-founder and Executive Director of A Growing Culture (AGC) a 501(c)3 nonprofit that confronts unjust power in the food system. In creating AGC, Loren works to shift the public’s perception of agrarians from one of passive beneficiaries to one of active innovators. AGC is a farmer-centric organization that believes the key to sustainability lies in returning small-scale farmers back to the forefront of agriculture. As part of this growing movement, Loren and his colleagues promote advocacy, farmer-led research, food sovereignty, and allyship, helping to create sustainable, self-driving future. A Growing Culture confronts unjust power in the food system. We are a movement-support organization that strives to democratize food systems by connecting, amplifying, and resourcing those on the frontlines of the fight for food sovereignty. https://www.agrowingculture.org/
