Sarah DeFrank & Katie Hallas
Tompkins Food Future

How do we create a more resilient, accessible, and sustainable food system for our community? Join us for an engaging presentation from the Food Bank of the Southern Tier on Tompkins Food Future, our local food policy council.

In this session, Sarah JP DeFrank (Director of Advocacy & Education) and Katie Hallas (Food Systems Manager) will provide an inside look at how this council brings together diverse stakeholders to address the challenges facing our local food landscape. Whether you are interested in community health, economic development, or simply the future of food in our region, this presentation will offer valuable insights into the power of collaborative food policy.

We look forward to a thoughtful discussion on how we can work together to build a hunger-free community.

Lunch is $25. All are welcome.
