About This Event

Our favorite commodities, coffee, chocolate, bananas - just to name a few - are going away due to deforestation and the climate change it creates.  As consumers we can and need to make a difference. Deborah Di Bernardo, owner of Roast House, will discuss sustainable commodities.

About the speaker: After 20+ years managing a law practice, Deborah Di Bernardo had a desire to get back into a more social and interactive life. Having grown up in a family-owned restaurant, she chose to recreate that lifestyle for herself; hence Roast House and 1st Ave Coffee were born.
