The second gathering of Locus’ 2X2 series – pairing local pioneers to talk about passions, inspirations, and relationships – draws a standing-room-only crowd. Not hard to believe given the topic. EATING!

Restauranteur Tracy Singleton (Birchwood Cafe) and organic farmer Greg Reynolds (Riverbend Farm) offered thoughts about soil building, the benefit of locally sourced food, managing supply chains dependent on weather and rainfall, and how the Twin Cities is becoming a center for Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). The evening was moderated by Mark Wheat. We’re grateful to all of the presenters that partner with us bringing important discussions to a public forum.
