Denver Food System Tour: SATURDAY, Nov. 6
From thriving urban gardens to innovative community food projects,
Denver has a lot to share with those interested in a just, healthy and
sustainable food system. Join us on a visit to some of the fascinating projects
going on in Denver. We’ll have lunch at a Denver public school working with
Denver SlowFood to improve school lunch; visit Delaney Farm, a project of
Denver Urban Gardens; and tour GrowHaus, an indoor farm, marketplace and
educational center.
Not only will you be inspired by what you see, but the tour is a great
opportunity to network and get to know diverse colleagues interested in food
systems and public health, as well as a chance for those new to APHA to come
into the conference with some connections already made!
Please note the tour will be on SATURDAY, so make sure your travel plans get
you to Denver by Saturday morning.
