 Please join us to celebrate the beginning of "Fertile Roots Miami" a food composting initiative with the City of Miami and participating restaurants, hotels and local urban gardening projects. We are diverting what was once food waste and turning it into a rich soil amendment to grow food for our local communities and close the food loop. 

 

Four course organic dinner will be served by top local chefs, in the beautiful surroundings of the organic Paradise Farms. A live auction of spa, restaurant, hotel packages and more are to follow.
