MAY 29 Event - Join the Agri-cultural Revolution!

Thursday, May 29 at 7p.m.
PSU Multicultural Center in Smith Student Union, Room 228
Portland, OR

Young farmer Tyler Jones from Afton Fields Farm will discuss his experiences as a farm intern with writer and food activist Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm.

Following his internship, Tyler moved back to Corvallis and now owns and manages about 30 acres using Joel's methods of raising pastured poultry (for eggs and meat), grass-fed beef, oak savanna pork, turkey, lamb, and bees for honey.

Tyler will address what is wrong with our current food system based on his experiences as a new generation farmer with old-school sustainable values.

Local food sustainability organizations will be on hand to discuss ways to get involved with food system issues.

Hosted by Portland State University's Food Matters student group
