With growth comes complexity. As a result of globalization and intricate trading channels, we have been increasingly disconnected from our food suppliers and the people behind the ingredients in our kitchens.
Join Regeneration Canada on January 17th to explore how to localize supply chains and improve transparency to create more regenerative, regionally-rooted food systems. During this webinar, we will hear from two farmers and a food industry entrepreneur who are actively working to implement new approaches in their communities. We will be joined by grain farmer Tannis Axten from Axten Farms, wine producer Rachel Lightfoot from Lightfoot & Wolfville Vineyards, and Sheena Russell, founder of Made with Local snack company. Get your questions ready! You will also have the opportunity to ask the farmers anything during the last part of the webinar. We invite you to listen to this podcast interview with Tannis for inspiration!
The webinar will run for 90-120 minutes, and will be facilitated by Communication and Food Innovation Strategist Isabelle Marquis, RD. The event will be held in English, with real-time interpretation in French. A recording of the webinar will be available in both languages after the event.

La croissance entraîne la complexité. La mondialisation et les circuits d’approvisionnement plus étendus font que nous sommes de plus en plus déconnecté·e·s de nos producteur·rice·s et ceux et de ceux et celles qui produisent et transforment nos ingrédients.
Rejoignez-nous le 17 janvier pour découvrir comment raccourcir les chaînes d’approvisionnement et améliorer la transparence afin de créer des systèmes alimentaires plus régénérateurs et ancrés dans le territoire.
Au cours de ce webinaire, nous écouterons deux agricultrices et une entrepreneure de l’industrie alimentaire qui travaillent activement à la mise en œuvre de nouvelles approches de circuits courts dans leurs communautés. Nos invitées seront Tannis Axten d’Axten Farms, Rachel Lightfoot de Lightfoot & Wolfville Vineyards, et Sheena Russell, fondatrice de la compagnie de collations Made with Local. Commencez vos réflexions ! Vous aurez la possibilité de poser des questions aux agricultrices pendant la dernière partie du webinaire. Nous vous invitons à écouter cette entrevue avec Tannis pour vous inspirer !
Le webinaire durera de 90 à 120 minutes et sera animé par Isabelle Marquis, Dt.P., stratège en communication et innovation alimentaire. L’événement se déroulera en anglais, avec une interprétation en direct en français. Un enregistrement du webinaire sera disponible dans les deux langues après l’événement.
