KEYNOTE BARRY LOGAN
OF LA MILPA ORGANICA FARM
speak at 2:30=3:45 PM
location, check at registration
outside parking lot 8
Barry Logan is a local San Diego food hero
to many. He is part of the La Milpa Organica Farm
Community. He goes the extra mile to practice principles
of growing food for people more than profit.
His business model is food and friendship first.
He places nutrition per acre over profit per ace.
His experience as a local grower connected to eaters,
students and healthy food policy activists
point out the need for change if truly San DIego is going
to feed its people and adjust to current trends
that may bring a local food crisis.
Logan sees Big Ag, as we know it now,
as problematic. Find out why. And hear about
the changes he sees that could make it possible for
small farmers to not only survive but thrive
locally for the good of all.
