How To: Bean Better - Webinar

Join Planted Society for a fun and practical conversation about ALL THINGS BEANS, featuring Registered Dietitian Rhyan Geiger and 8 Track Foods President Maggie Sadowsky. We’ll explore how beans support fiber intake and overall health, as well as their environmental benefits. We’ll learn how to use them at home and their role in broader community food systems. Come learn, ask questions, and get inspired by all the ways we can “bean better, together!” How To: Bean Better is part of Planted Society’s “How To: Eat for Impact” webinar series. These sessions bring together experts, organizers, and creators to explore what is shifting in our food system and offer space to think about how we can apply those ideas in our own lives, kitchens, and communities.
