Bob Quinn & Liz Carlisle
March 18, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeWhen Bob Quinn was a kid, a stranger at a county fair gave him a few kernels of an unusual grain. Years later, it would become the centerpiece of his multimillion-dollar heirloom grain company, Kamut International. How Quinn went from being a believer in better farming through chemistry to a leading proponent of organics is the unlikely story of Grain by Grain (Island), cowritten with Liz Carlisle. This event is sponsored by Bob’s Red Mill.
