On Tuesday, January 22nd at 7 PM in the Program Room of the Newburyport Public Library, the Greater Newburyport Edible Garden Group (EGG) will welcome Dan Kittredge to speak about the bionutrient approach to growing delicious, nutritious food. Dan has been an organic farmer since childhood and is the founder of the Real Food Campaign and the Bionutrient Food Association. He is passionate about raising the quality of nutrition in our food supply. Dan will cover key elements of the bionutrient approach including soil biology, minerology and energy dynamics that can be applied to food growing at any scale, from the backyard to a farm.

The Edible Garden Group was formed by community members who are interested in getting together to learn and share information about sustainable food growing – veggies, fruits, nuts. The meetings are focused on building community resilience through increasing the availability of safe, nutritious, sustainably-grown local food.
