/PRNewswire/ — Natural Grocers® is proud to participate in the upcoming

Sustainability Showcase

on

July 21


st

, 2022, co-hosted by the National Association for Catering & Events (NACE) – Capital Area of

Wisconsin

and Egg Innovations. The farm-to-table event will showcase how regenerative agriculture balances nature to create harmony and sustainability for farm and flock.

Set on the pastures of the Teunissen Farm in the Dutch Heritage Acres of

Cedar Grove, WI

, this special event celebrates how suppliers, retailers and consumers have the power to give back to the planet through the businesses they support.

Attendees’ registration includes a property tour of a working regenerative farm, experiential event setup, gourmet hors d’oeuvres, an open bar and an incredible multi-course feast crafted by

Nadi Plates

, featuring

Helpful Hens

and

Blue Sky Family Farms

pasture-raised eggs. After dinner there will be a casual educational program including expert industry panelists.

Natural Grocers’

Christie Zimmerman

will be joining the panel discussion. “We’re thrilled to have Christie join us for this year’s Sustainability Showcase,” said

Sarah Davidson

, President of NACE Capital Area of

Wisconsin

. Davidson continued, “We’ll have the best of both worlds for our attendees: they’ll not only see (and taste) regenerative farming practices in person, but they’ll also have the opportunity to learn and converse with top professionals in the regenerative agriculture space. Sifting through all the information that’s out there on this subject can be daunting. This premier event will inform attendees what they need to know both as consumers and as premium food service providers, and show the power of impact that their everyday personal and professional choices have.”


The panel, moderated by

Sarah Davidson

, will include:

“We’re proud to support one of our key laying hen partners at this farm-to-table event. Being able to tour the farm and see the impact the birds have on the land, pollinators and the whole farm ecosystem is a unique opportunity. Natural Grocers is committed to educating the public on the powers of regenerative agriculture as well as the power of their purchase dollars. Bringing people into a closer relationship to where their food comes from matters because it empowers consumers to make better and more informed decisions,” said Zimmerman.


Registration for the event closes at 11:59pm
