Peter Hoy will  talk about colony collapse disorder and why bees are so crucial to our food system as food pollinators. Chicago’s Urban Worm Girl will be discussing the benefits of using worms for composting. Seneca Kern will be shedding light on the growing popularity and necessity of organic gardening as well as using gardens in building community.
