SISA 2012 Keynote: John E.
Ikerd
The SISA 2012 conference
staff attended the Wisconsin Forum on Rural and Urban Agriculture put on by
Sustain Rural Wisconsin on November 11th and 12th. John Ikerd gave an
introductory keynote address titled "How Did We Get Here? Where Are We
Going? Growing Together in Strength." Needless to say, we were impressed. As
we correspond with John and discuss the topics he will address at the SISA
conference we are confident that the result will inspire further action and
innovation in our own lives as well as the lives of our guests.
As the conference approaches we will post more information about the keynote
address.
