Patagonia Provisions and Off the Table are hosting sustainability experts (and fish enthusiasts) for an engaging conversation on how the food we choose, cook, and share can support a more sustainable future. You’ll hear from chef Brad Leone, NASF Iceland’s Elias Thorarinsson, and Icelandic wild-salmon advocate Vala Árnadóttir. Following the panel discussion, stick around for a screening of Laxaþjóð | A Salmon Nation.
A selection of sustainable food and beverages will be served.
Moderated by Paul Lightfoot, the panel brings together chef and food storyteller Brad Leone, NASF Iceland’s Elias Thorarinsson, and Icelandic wild-salmon advocate Vala Árnadóttir to explore everything from the pleasures of tinned fish and reducing kitchen waste to responsible seafood sourcing and the future of wild Atlantic salmon. Expect practical, no-pressure guidance for asking better questions at the grocery store, making the most of every ingredient, and bringing more intention, and most importantly, flavor, to everyday meals. The conversation will conclude with audience Q&A.
Our relationship with nature not only defines our history, it shapes our future, too. Yet beneath the surface of Iceland’s fjords, an industrial fish farming method threatens to destroy one of Europe’s last remaining wildernesses. Laxaþjóð | A Salmon Nation tells the story of a country united by its lands and waters, and the power of a community to protect the wild places and animals that helped forge its identity.
