In what ways do our eating habits affect our surroundings? What responsibility do we have as Jews and as humans to be
responsible stewards of our agricultural system? This talk explores these questions by analyzing the varied intersections
between religion and agriculture, focusing specifically on contemporary Jewish sustainable agriculture.
