Circular Economy: Turning Waste into Opportunity
Tuesday, September 1st | 12:00–1:00 PM
What if the by-products of one farm or business could become valuable resources for another?
Join us for an engaging discussion on the circular economy and how organic agriculture is leading the way in building systems that regenerate resources, reduce waste, and create new economic opportunities. From innovative approaches to nutrient cycling and food waste reduction to collaborative business models and community partnerships, this webinar will explore how circular thinking can strengthen both farms and local food systems.
Hear from Yasemin Zorlutuna, Dr. Sadaf Mollaei, Maureen Kirkpatrick, and Jessica Pfenning as they share practical examples, research, and real-world experiences that demonstrate how circular economy principles can be applied across Ontario's organic sector.
Whether you're a farmer, processor, retailer, researcher, or simply interested in creating more resilient food systems, you'll leave with ideas you can put into practice and a fresh perspective on the opportunities that exist when we rethink "waste."
Free to attend. Registration required.
