DESCRIPTION:Learn about the wonders of local food and sample the products of local 
 chefs, farmers and artisans\n\nJered Lawson, Farmer and Owner, Pie 
 Ranch\nAri Derfel, Back to Earth Catering\nSibella Kraus, Sustainable 
 Agriculture Education\nPeggy Smith, Co-owner, Cowgirl Creamery\nJoan Simon, 
 Full Plate Restaurant Consulting - Moderator\n\nChefs, farmers, advocates 
 and food artisans are crafting a new, localized food system through their 
 businesses. From farm to pie shop, through working to convert county parks 
 to places of food production, and by providing local food alternatives, our 
 panelists will inspire you with their passion and dedication toward 
 increasing our access and knowledge of local foods.\n\nThis program is part 
 of Eat Local Month in the Bay Area. October is harvest time as well as Eat 
 Local Month in the Bay Area. In one of the most abundant local food 
 economies in the country, we are fortunate to be able to take one month and 
 devote it to the sensations of the season. In celebration of this 
 nationwide movement, The Commonwealth Club is hosting a series of timely 
 programs on the social, economic and environmental benefits of supporting 
 local food producers.\n\nIn addition to inviting people to eat locally 
 grown foods as much as possible during October (visit www.eatlocalsf.org 
 for more details), the planned four-part series at The Commonwealth Club 
 will include three seminars, including how local governments are affected 
 (October 1); how water is challenging our local food supply (October 8), 
 and how advocates for healthier eating are affecting the local-foods 
 equation (October 22). In addition, the Club will sponsor a panel of 
 experts at the Ferry Building (October 15) discussing how farmers and 
 professional chefs are collaborating to build stronger and more sustainable 
 communities; this panel discussion will be accompanied by a tasting of 
 local food and wine.\n\nEat Local Month is brought to you by The 
 Commonwealth Club Bay Gourmet Forum in association with Eat Local SF, 
 Community Alliance for Family Farmers, and Buy Fresh Buy Local.\n
