Erin Schneider co-owns Hilltop Community Farm and works there as an organic farmer. Her farm focuses mainly on their community supported agriculture program that provides weekly delivery of vegetables and fresh-cut flowers to members. In her talk, Erin discusses how our own gardens can become "eco-topias" of natural abundance. She offers valuable insight into sustainability to help move us all towards an environmentally sound future. About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
