Meet Te'Lario Watkins II. This 9-year-old boy knows a thing or two about growing mushrooms. He and his family have set up an entire working mushroom farm inside their home. It all began with a Cub Scout project about seedlings: catnip and basil. It was love at first sprout. Headed to Natural Products Expo West? Don't miss Te'Lario, along with Back to the Roots, Demeter and The Ron Finley Project on Friday, March 10, at 12:45 p.m. in a deep-dive session exploring the future of farming.
This session, a part of our larger Accelerating Access to Grow Your Business track is sponsored by Esca Bona and our partners at 301 INC and BeyondBrands. With the help of our partners, who continue to support a shift in our broken food system, we're able to bring sessions like these to life. We believe that one of the foundational pillars of this shift is growing access to healthy foods—starting with the youngest consumers and farmers.
