Daily Bread: Food Justice in the Hudson Valley

November 12th, 11 a.m.

We are mindful that in the 'land of plenty,' many among us are hungry and forced to reckon with scarcity and injustice when it comes to food. Please join us in a lively discussion about food justice in our community and beyond. We will discuss food access and insecurity, sustainability, and the labor involved in bringing food to our tables. Hear from educators and organizations working in these areas. Come hungry for understanding, and leave full of new awareness and possibilities for personal action for food justice!
