We all know how important diet is to overall health.
What about the way our food is produced? How do food and agriculture
systems impact on the health and environment of communities? How can hospitals promote sustainable and healthier food for patients and staff?
 Is the Farm Bill a piece of public health legislation?

If these questions excite you, join
