SUMMARY:Food Justice
DESCRIPTION:In today’s food system\, farm workers face hazardous conditions\, low-income neighborhoods lack supermarkets but abound in fast food franchises\, and food products sometimes resemble more of a high calorie chemical mash than a wholesome and healthy product. Opposing these conditions\, a movement for food justice has emerged\, which seeks to transform our food system from field to table. In his new book\, Food Justice\, Gottlieb tells the story of this emerging movement.

SUMMARY:Regional Food Hub Network Meeting Agenda
DESCRIPTION:Over the past 10 years\, non-profits\, grower cooperatives\, and small businesses have developed marketing efforts to bridge localized small scale producers with established distribution chains in order to meet the demand for “Locally Grown” foods. These aggregation and distribution centers are diverse in ownership\, scale\, and strategies\, but they share common objective of providing a mechanism for growers to access markets they otherwise have trouble reaching and for communities to access foods they otherwise have trouble getting. At the same time\, established distributors have been responding to the “Locally Grown” demand with their own efforts by incorporating more producers and developing their own marketing strategies.
