Join us for a webinar by the James Beard Foundation featuring Melanie Brown, Salmon State, Bristol Bay, Alaska; David Shields, University of South Carolina, Columbia, South Carolina; Germaine Jenkins, Future Farm Inc., North Charleston, South Carolina; Chef Ian Boden, The Shack, Staunton, VA; and moderated by VP of Community Colleen Vincent, James Beard Foundation.

For this panel, we’ll shine a light on some ways to preserve important local community foodways, including some that are under imminent threat of disappearing forever.
