PAST EVENTS

Northwest Real Food Summit
March 19-21, Portland, OR

The Real Food revolution is heating up the Northwest this March—watch out! We will be hosting our summit in conjunction with the 4th Annual National Farm to Cafeteria Conference. Join us in solidarity for four days of youth empowerment, solutions-based workshops, and action. Our rockin' youth delegation will meet with allies including farmers, public health advocates, policy-makers, food service providers, farmworkers, and community activists to discuss our collective work towards a just and sustainable food system. We will have student-run skills trainings, hands-on learning opportunities, delicious food (of course!), and more. Expect to leave with a support network, new friends, leadership skills, and an action plan.
