 Shannon Hayes
Real Cows in a Parallel Universe
Drawing from true stories and her pragmatic agrarian sensibilities (and wit), Hayes will examine the nature of life, death and stewardship in family farming and sustainable living, and how the fundamental lessons of caring, compassion and abundance will transform our national culture.
Shannon Hayes is the host of grassfedcooking.com, and the author of The Grassfed Gourmet and The Farmer and the Grill. With luck, the advance copies of her newest book, Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity from a Consumer Culture, will be released at this years' conference. Hayes works with three generations of her family raising grassfed and pastured meats on Sap Bush Hollow Farm in Schoharie Co., New York. She has written for numerous national publications, including The New York Times. Her fourth book, Long Way on a Little: An Earth Lovers' Handbook for Enjoying Meat, Pinching Pennies and Living Deliciously is due out in September of 2011.

 Elizabeth Henderson
Chaos or Community? From the Current Food and Climate Crisis to a Food System that is Locally Empowered, Organic and Fair
Elizabeth Henderson takes the title of her speech from Martin Luther King, Jr's 1967 book where he lays out the choice for humanity between nonviolent coexistence and violent coannihilation. We face a choice as critical today: will human beings continue on our current path towards global climate change with the hideous consequences of famine, disease and conflict, or will we rebuild our societies using all that we have learned in organic and sustainable agriculture, and cooperative, solidarity economies? In this talk, Henderson will summarize the dangers we face but concentrate on solutions from her experience of 30 years as a farmer and active participant in the organic movement.
