9am-12pm Food Policy Council Workshop
12pm-5pm Annual Ohio Food Policy Summit
5pm-7pm Networking Happy Hour
The Summit will kick-off with a morning workshop — "Redesigning the table: using equity and systems for collective action" — led by Johns Hopkins University's Food Policy Network that is intended to strengthen and equip Ohio's local food policy councils. This workshop is designed for members of local food policy councils, but anyone interested is welcome to register and attend.
The main public event in the afternoon focuses on food and farm policies developing at local, state, and national levels: including challenges faced by farmers, issues of social equity, and food system financing. During the keynote, the Ohio Department of Agriculture will discuss policy initiatives around children, food, agriculture, and health in the state of Ohio. The main event is open to all who want to see a strong regional food system in Ohio.
From 5-7pm there will be a networking happy hour.
