Setting the table for an abundant future

Event highlights:

Friday, Feb. 28

Saturday, March 1

• A full conference day at Lopez School featuring dynamic sessions and a keynote address by Haslett-Marroquín, CEO of Tree-Range Farms. His keynote, titled “Regenerative Living: A Call to Embrace the Abundance Among Us,” will guide attendees through an inspiring journey. Despite having grown from extreme poverty Haslett-Marroquín speaks from a place of abundance as he walks the audience through an opening mediation. Centered on a lifetime dedicated to regenerative thinking as expressed through his three decades of work launching a regenerative poultry system, Haslett-Marroquín will guide us through his own life path and the parallel experiences and struggles that farmers and communities face across the planet as they seek to find a way to live regeneratively.
