Hi Everyone,
The Algoma Food Network will be hosting a public event, Edible Algoma, on June 17, 2009 at 7 p.m. in the Great West Life Amphitheatre on the campus of Algoma University.
At this meeting, the network will be presenting its current priorities and will host an open forum.
The network is also announcing a change in leadership, with the appointment of Birgit Kroll as chair.
Lee-Ann Chevrette, the former chair, has recently moved to Thunder Bay.
The local food movement has planted its roots and is growing bigger each year across Canada and the U.S.
In the Algoma District, consumers have demonstrated their eagerness to embrace local foods through farmer's markets, community supported agriculture, community gardens and businesses such as Penokean Hills Farms.
To address the growing trend of local food, the Algoma Food Network needs to expand and is seeking the public's input and assistance.
Since 2007, the Algoma Food Network has worked hard to become an integral resource to this movement by connecting local food producers with consumers.
The network would like to continue this partnership in the years to come.
The Algoma Food Network is dedicated to building and maintaining a network of local food producers and consumers through education, advocacy, action and relationship building.
For more information, please contact David Thompson at (705) 949-2301, ext. 4348 or Birgit Kroll at 705-945-1538
