Building Equity and Promoting Drawdown in Our Regional Food Systems
TPSS Co-op is joining Busboys and Poets and the Takoma Alliance for Local Living Economy (TALLE/Takoma Park Mobilization), to co-host the Climate Action Coffee series for the month of November.
Please join us for a discussion on 'Building Equity and Promoting Drawdown in our Regional Food Systems’. Climate activists, legislators, small farmer advocates, cooperative grocery stores and other food system leaders will come together to highlight the importance of strengthening our regional food system and to determine where activists can step up to further the urgent work already underway.
We will be joined by Maryland Del. Lorig Charkoudian; Heather Bruskin, Montgomery County Food Council; Caroline Taylor, Montgomery Countryside Alliance; Ginia Avery, Community Grocery Cooperative; Philip Bogdonoff, Biodiversity for a Livable Climate; and other food systems leaders in our region.

The Climate Action Coffee takes place every Wednesday, 7:30 am-9 am at Busboy and Poets, Takoma.
This is a weekly series meant to provide an organizing workspace with action-oriented discussion circles focused on building the kinds of markets, society, food systems and resiliency that we want for our region; raising watershed and environmental justice consciousness; and following youth climate leaders in taking immediate action to reverse the dramatic disruption of our climate systems. Bring your vision and passion for reshaping our communities and local economies in the service of resiliency, racial equity, and carbon-neutrality.
Free coffee compliments of Busboys!
