In person.

Regardless of economic cycles, global pandemics or political administrations, food insecurity remains one of society’s ever-present concerns.  The commercial real estate sector has the unique opportunity to address this fundamental issue while improving the built environment. 

Join ULI as we convene a panel of thought leaders and subject matter experts to discuss how growing food in urban areas urban can ease access to food, reconnect communities to the practice of growing food, and engages the community on a variety of levels while increasing commercial real estate’s sustainability and ESG alignment.

The first 20 registrants will have the opportunity to attend an Urban Foraging tour at 4:30pm, before the panel program begins!
