UFV Abbotsford hosts the AgriCULTURE! Symposium on Thursday, September 19 in K Building.
Dr. Michelle Superle hosts a panel discussion with representatives from Abbotsford’s culturally diverse array of agriculture and food culture groups. They’ll explore how connections between culture and agriculture take shape in Abbotsford. Abbotsford food and farming folks who help bring you delicious things to eat will share their perspectives on this element of human life that we all experience daily — often without thinking about or even realizing it.
AgriCULTURE! Symposium is presented by the University of the Fraser Valley Food and Agriculture Institute in collaboration with Tourism Abbotsford and Superle’s 20 Harvest Challenge. After the panel discussion, attendees are welcome to enjoy a number of additional Symposium components, including exploration of Dr. Superle’s Food Museum, a scavenger hunt, and more.
