What Can Farmers Do On Their Land To Thrive Without Animals?
Rowdy Girl Sanctuary is hosting a virtual summit for the next generation of farmers The plant-based food industry is exploding in response to the demand for a more sustainable, equitable food system that is not dominated by a handful of mega-corporations.
The Rancher Advocacy Program (RAP) Summit was created to bring together thought-leaders from business, science, government and medicine to share scalable and scientifically-backed solutions.
This 4th annual summit will feature a discussion surrounding how the next generation of farmers can convert their land away from animal-based business models.
The day will be hosted by Renee King-Sonnen, founder of Rowdy Girl Sanctuary and RAP, and co-hosted by Jane Velez-Mitchell, founder of UnchainedTV, a streaming TV and online news
network to promote animal rights.
The event will feature a special appearance by farmers Jennifer and Rodney Barrett, whose poultry farm is currently being transitioned into a state-of-the-art mushroom growing operation by the RAP team.
This project will serve as an unprecedented model for other farmers to transition.
Panelists will include:
Connie Spence of the Agriculture Fairness Alliance, a national advocacy organization lobbying for policies to make plant-based foods more accessible and affordable;
Carl Jorgensen of the Plant Based Foods Institute which helps businesses drive a shift to a plant-based food system;
David Ebert of Animal Defense Partnership which provides pro-bono counsel for animal protection charities;
Denis Vidmar, whose expertise is guiding the Barrett Farm transition, is the founder of The Mushroom Hub, a fungi company;
Jacque Salomon of Seeds to Inspire Foundation which provides education about healthful foods and lifestyles to the Covid-19 vulnerable and those affected by climate destabilization;
Eloisa Trinidad of Chilis on Wheels works to make veganism accessible to communities in need through food relief, policy, education, and mentorship.
The event will include a preview of the feature-length documentary film Rowdy Girl directed by Jason Goldman and executive produced by Moby.
Pat Brown, founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Impossible Foods, will also join us for a fireside chat.
