"Reluctant farmer" Lucie Amundsen will be among the speakers at a food access summit Wednesday through Friday at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center.
More than 500 people from such fields as agriculture, hunger relief, health and tribal government are expected to attend the conference, according to a news release from Hunger Solutions Minnesota, one of the event's sponsors.
The purpose of the sixth annual summit is to "join efforts to create an equitable food system from the producer to the consumer," according to the news release.
Amundsen, who founded Locally Laid Egg Co. in the Northland with her husband and wrote a book about the experience, is one of the conference's keynote speakers.
