This was a first-ever conference, held in conjunction with the Food Security Research Network’s March Food Forum, that has already resulted in progress being made towards strengthening the capacity of our local food system, increasing connections among local food partners and enhancing our ability to grow, market and enjoy local products.

Our featured keynote speaker was Margaret Webb. Our 120+ participants rated the Conference very highly. They said:
