Organic cottonfield, ready for harvest
Beginning Sunday, another organic farm exposition will be held at McCormick Place through May 3. Billed as North America’s only all-organic event, the All Things Organic Conference and Trade Show will feature over 400 booths of organic products, educational seminars and special events. Many of the farmers and vendors mentioned in this blog will be exhibiting.
The keynote address of this four-day event will be given by Nina Rothschild Utne, CEO and chair of Utne magazine. The keynote speaker will be documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, who recently won an Oscar for his film, Super Size Me. Both speakers have been advocates of organic foods and supporters of local farmers. Utne magazine has spoken out against genetically altered foods for some time.
