Good Food for Good Health, Now and for Generations
Join us at the Tarlton Theator!
The historic Tarlton Theatre, Inspired North, and NEW Leaf Foods present an evening with Robin Greenfield!
For one year Robin Greenfield foraged every bite of his food and medicine. A year without grocery stores or restaurants. Now he is traveling to local communities to share his foraging journey and celebrate the individuals and organizations in our community working for a more resilient, local food system. Join Robin for an eye opening exploration of food sovereignty through the food and medicine that is growing abundantly all around us.
Doors open at 5:30pm and the show starts at 6:30pm. Full dinner menu and beverages available. Please pre-purchase your dinner with your reservation at the Tarlton Theator. Tables for parties of 2-5 available.
Tickets available now for a suggested donation of $10 per person. Donations will benefit the 1 Million Community Fruit Trees Initiative. Please reserve a table for your party. Seating arrangements are on a first-come, first-served basis based on the order your reservation is placed. Please purchase a table based on the number of guests in your party. Tables or individual tickets are not guaranteed proximity to other parties unless purchased together under the same party name or same order.
We’re hosting one more Grassroots in the Garden session this year!
Join us for one last Grassroots in the Garden Session in 2026 where Grassroots mentor Dillon Wiest will teach us about an age old permaculture technique known as hügelkulturr. The term is means “mound culture” and involves creating a compost mound that eventually turns into a garden bed. If you want to learn how to start composting in your own yard, or how you can start a raised garden bed without any carpentry needed, then join us on November 7th from 11:00am-1pm. If you have any cardboard you’d like to get rid of, bring to this event and we can use to make some garden beds.
Grassroots in the Garden acts as a great entry point for those new to gardening who are looking to learn AND an opportunity for seasoned growers to practice their skills and give back to the community.
These workshops are open to the public and completely free!

The Whole Wheat Story in Four Courses
The Whole Wheat Story in Four Courses was a series of talks hosted at the Brown County Central Library in June of 2026 and marked the beginning of New Leaf Foods’ newest project: Food For Health. The talks were given by PHD biologist Vicki Medland and registered dietician Michelle Nowak. The talks were open to the public and free so anyone could come in and learn more about food science and history. However even if you missed the live talks you can still learn from these two experts shared in our video recordings of the classes.
