I had an incredible experience on Sunday, participating in a sustainability panel at the Skirball. This event was in

support of the American Friends of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The keynote speaker was Rahm Emanuel

- taking a break from his campaign for mayor of Chicago. He was brilliant, clear and very informative. I thank

Nancy Silverton so much for including me in her panel!! - Farmer Barbara
