THE 15th ANNUAL
WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 2013, 11AM–2PM
San Francisco Botanical Garden
in Golden Gate Park
In support of the Garden's
Youth Education ProgramKEYNOTE SPEAKER
Richard Louv
Audubon Medal recipient, best-selling author of Last Child in the Woods and The Nature Principle
When Last Child in the Woods was published in 2005, Richard Louv sparked a national debate that spawned an international movement to reconnect kids and nature. He coined the term Nature-Deficit Disorder™, influenced national policy, and helped inspire campaigns in over 100 cities, states, and provinces throughout North America. With the publication in 2011 of The Nature Principle, Louv makes a convincing case that through a nature-balanced existence–driven by sound economic, social, and environmental solutions–the human race can and will thrive.
ABOUT GARDEN FEAST
This annual luncheon is dedicated to the children of our community. San Francisco Botanical Garden Society's Youth Education Program reaches over 10,000 children a year, most from San Francisco public schools and many from the City's most underserved neighborhoods. The Program is free of charge and offers a range of hands-on experiences throughout San Francisco Botanical Garden, whose plants and wildlife provide a living laboratory to learn about nature in all its complexity. Please help us share the wonders of nature in nature with as many children as we can.
