Whatcom Food Network’s Fall Forum

All are invited to attend the Whatcom Food Network’s Fall Forum on November 17th for a presentation about the Center for Good Food Purchasing, a national organization spearheading powerful initiatives for food system transformation through values-based food procurement.

In addition to discussing institutional purchasing, the Fall Forum also will feature a session by Mark Peterson, local waste industry expert at Sustainable Connections. He will speak about the challenges and opportunities currently surrounding organic food waste in Whatcom county and moving toward the goal of eliminating food waste. There will also be time for participants to network and lead, or participate in, relevant discussions on varying local food system topics. The Fall Forum is free, but attendees must RSVP as space is limited.
