Development threatens Long Island’s 31,000 acres of farmland, while many of the Island’s residents don’t have enough food to feed their families. Thankfully, innovative partnerships can both help protect farmland and feed hungry Long Islanders.
Layton Guenther, director of Quail Hill Farm, and Trust donor Lisa Valentine will speak with Amy Freitag, Trust president; David Okorn, executive director of our Long Island office; Sol Marie Alfonso Jones, our Long Island program director; and Patricia Marcin, chair of the Trust’s Long Island advisory board, about finding common solutions.
A reception will follow the discussion.
