Changing Our
Lives for the Better

The 3rd annual Bioneers at MCC Conference is shaping up to be our best conference yet! We encourage people throughout northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin to join us in exploring this year's theme Food - How It's All Connected.

Jim Braun, Coordinator of the Illinois Local Food, Farms and Jobs Council, will be our keynote speaker and begin the dialogue about local food. Three of the breakout sessions to choose from will further investigate this topic: How to Make Local Food Happen, Becoming a Locovore, and Healthy Food and Schools.

Energy Efficiency Resources for your Family, Greening of the Faith Community and Global Climate Disruption are also breakout session options. DVDs from the national Bioneers Conference will feature national environmental leaders and "hot topics"'.

Sign up today and join us in Making Our Lives Greener Through Innovation!
