Join Wilmington College for the 32nd Annual Westheimer Peace Symposium entitled, “Regenerative Agriculture for a Just and Peaceful Future” with panels starting at 9 a.m. and activities ending at 5 p.m. Highlighting this year’s event will be a keynote address Wednesday, September 28, from 7-8:15 p.m. featuring Distinguished University Professor of Soil Science, The Ohio State University, Dr. Rattan Lal. For five decades Lal has traveled all over the world, conducting research in the field of carbon sequestration, a practice that has been shown to significantly reduce carbon in the atmosphere while simultaneously restoring soil depleted by years of industrial farming. Lal will be joined during the day by Ohio leaders of regenerative agriculture who will share their years of expertise in ecological farming. Panels will be held in the McCoy Room (Kelly Center) and the Keynote address will be held at Heiland Theatre (Boyd Cultural Arts Center).
