Attendees had a chance to sample a variety of food at the recent garden event, Grow: a Springtime Sisterhood Social & Fundraiser, held at Lisa and Charlie Matar’s home in Monte Sereno on May 7.
Invited guests enjoyed tea and champagne, farm fresh plant-based culinary treats and a table talk with Lisa Matar, founder of Health Bear Food Co., Chris Laughlin, farmer and founder of Sea-to-Sky Farm, and Johanna Mahal, philanthropy director of Opportunity International.
Moderated by Stefanie Lingle Beasley, co-founder, and partner at Beasley McCusker Communications, the three featured female speakers shared how they got their start in farming, food creation and philanthropy.
And they spoke about how they’re interconnected in their desires to make the world a better place through the sustainable practices of earth stewardship, planet-based, low carbon dietary options and climate resilience programs for global farmers living in ultra poverty.
