If you have attended Berry Good Night in the past, you know its mission is to celebrate and connect local growers, ranchers, and producers, along with championing the ideology of sustainable food in San Diego and Baja.

On September 23rd, we present an exciting new approach.

To engage the community like never before, Berry Good Night will become an interactive and inspirational culinary adventure for just 100 hand-selected idea ambassadors who are focused on instrumental change in our food systems.

We’re calling on experts across the country from all disciplines—farmers, chefs, academics, students, luminaries, and beyond—to bring a transformative dialogue to an evening that will be unlike anything you have experienced before. Candidates do not necessarily need to work in the food industry. We are looking to think outside the box this year and apply fresh perspectives and approaches to our food system challenges.

If you are passionate about creating authentic change, or can help us by recommending friends or colleagues who may be interested in attending (even if they live in another city):

Please click on this link and fill out our brief application (5-10 minutes) before July 15th, 2017

We’re honored to have Danielle Nierenberg, co-founder of Food Tank, as our featured speaker, and together we aim to spark discussion, education, empowerment, and action, and we need your ideas to light the fire.

We look forward to a new kind of conversation on September 23rd, and we hope you or someone you recommend can be one of the 100 founding voices.
