Save the date: Just Food Conference at TC 3/15/15
Workshops, skill-building sessions, and plenaries around creating a healthy, sustainable, just food system.
The annual Just Food Conference offers opportunities for the general public, CSA members, community organizers, and farmers to come together for workshops, skill-building sessions, and plenaries. The conference provides attendees with opportunities to learn about food and nutrition education, food policy, regional farm and food issues, CSA trends, and cooking and food preservation techniques, as well as ways to mobilize communities in order to increase access to farm-fresh, locally grown food.
