National Farm to Cafeteria Conference

Posted by on August 05, 2013

The National Farm to Cafeteria Conference: Powering Up will convene a diverse group of stakeholders from across the farm to cafeteria movement—more than 1,000 food service professionals, farmers, educators, youth leaders, policy makers, advocates, state/federal agency professionals, entrepreneurs, public health professionals and others—working to source local food for institutional cafeterias and foster a culture of food and agricultural literacy across America.

Together, we have the power to affect great change! Cafeterias in schools, universities, prisons, hospitals and childcare centers serve more than 40 million Americans every day during the school year, placing the farm to cafeteria movement at the forefront of the fight to end obesity and strengthen local food systems.

Join us in Austin, April 15-18, for three days of inspiring field trips, workshops, speakers and networking! A workshop RFP will be released in September, and registration will open in January 2014. More information: http://farmtocafeteriaconference.org/
