Summit Success

Nearly 120 people attended the Local Food Summit at Matthaei Botanical Gardens on Thursday, January 29th. The program for the day included wonderful food, compelling speakers, thoughtful group activities, and hopeful plans for a healthy, secure, and fair local food system. 

Summit organizers are now working on compiling information that was gathered, including the major areas identified as priorities by working groups. We are also in the process of investigating tools that will best match our ongoing needs for sharing information and making connections. In the meantime we will communicate via email.  If you are not already on our contact list and would like to receive follow-up information, please make a request at info@localfoodsummit.org

Thank you to everyone who attended - the good ideas, energy and enthusiasm demonstrated at the Summit were truly inspiring!  See more about the day in coverage from the Ann Arbor Chronicle on "Local Food for Thought."
