ME on Tuesday, Jan. 29: NEWMAN'S OWN ORGANICS, THE SECOND GENERATION

Nell in a lettuce field

The Greenville, SC Upstate Forever ForeverGreen Annual Awards Luncheon will be held on Feb. 21st.  Upstate Forever is a non-profit organization promoting sensible growth and protecting special places in the Upstate region of South Carolina.  The ForeverGreen Awards honor individuals and organizations for significant contributions in the fields of land conservation, water quality, air quality, sustainable development, public service and volunteer work.

The keynote speaker for this year's Awards Luncheon is Nell Newman, daughter of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, two of the most talented and respected actors of the Golden Age of Hollywood.

However, rather than going into the acting side of the family business, Nell decided to go into the food business and asked her dad if she and her partner could produce a group of organic foods to go along with the original Newman's Own brand of products. He said 'yes', and so it began.

Don't miss this special conversation with a very seriously funny entrepreneur about going all organic before "all organic" was cool.
