Bay Area Open Space Council to Discuss Upcoming Funding Opportunities at 2015 Harvest Gathering

We’ll be talking about it on November 19! (Read this on the web.)

In less than a month – November 19 at 9:30am in Berkeley to be exact – we will host a panel of experts to share the latest, answer questions, and call you to action.

Speakers include:

  • Amy Hutzel, Coastal Conservancy, to talk about the Bay Program of the Coastal Conservancy
  • David Lewis, Save the Bay, to talk about the Restoration Authority
  • Kathryn Lyddan, Bay Area Agriculture Conservationists, to talk about Strategic Growth Council’s agriculture program
  • Sara Fain, Greenbelt Alliance, to talk about ABAG’s Priority Conservation Areas (PCAs)
  • Andrea Mackenzie, Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority, to moderate

The Gathering will be held November 19, 2015 from 9:30am-1pm at the David Brower Center in downtown Berkeley. Program starts at 10am but no beverages are permitted in the theater. Join us at 9:30 for coffee and tea, and lunch will be served at 12pm.

This Gathering is for you if you work to protect land from development, create new parks and open spaces, steward and work the land, and connect people to land. This is for you if you work in conservation policy, public affairs, fundraising, communications, land acquisitions, land stewardship, and other leadership roles. We look forward to seeing you if you are passionate about the nature’s role in making the Bay Area great.
