JCTM Virtual Series: Green Food Technology

THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD VIA ZOOM WEBINAR - REGISTER HERE: https://bit.ly/JCTMZOOMREGISTER

Just cause physical events are postponed doesn't mean the JCTM fun needs to stop! Join us for our first virtual meetup as we chat with Mary Wetherill and Electra Jarvis of Green Food Solutions, an awesome local company changing the game in the farm tech scene. Now more than ever, people need to start thinking about self-sustainability and leveraging technology to create alternative nutritious food options. Mary and Electra have done exactly that, and we are super excited to chat with them about how they're working towards a healthier planet, diving into some of the technology they use in their products, the future of farming/agriculture and more.

Don't miss out on the fun - grab a glass of wine (or herbal tea ;) and join the conversation. We'll be doing audience Q&A at the end so be sure to come with some questions prepared!
