Food System Social at Pharm Table

The Food System Social at Pharm Table was an incredible experience!

This Food System Social is part of the Annual Gardopia Gardens Food and Nature Education Conference, aimed at raising awareness about our innate connection to what we eat and where it’s sourced from

The event encouraged engagement from a network of stakeholders. From producers, chefs, educators, advocates, NGOs, and more, the panel offered their insights into the opportunities and challenges the food system is facing in its need to sustain a growing population amid COVID-19 recovery and environmental stressors.

Engaging in dialogue in the food systems addresses multiple aspects of equity regarding land usage, workers' rights. ethical treatment of livestock, transportation practices, CO2 production, accessibility, policy, conservation, and more.

These conversations allow individuals to think bigger and reflect on the interconnection of various aspects of the food system to create a holistic perspective that can raise awareness of healthy norms in the community and culture.
