Join us for the 11th Annual Ohio Food Policy Summit on Monday, November 8th in a virtual format hosted by the Ohio Food Policy Network and the John Glenn College of Public Affairs. This year we will be joined by US Representative Marcy Kaptur (OH-9), State Representative Juanita Brent (Cleveland-12), and Stacy Malkan, co-founder and managing editor of U.S. Right to Know. Join us to find out who is this year’s Ohio Food Hero.

We will dive into the Ohio Food Policy Network’s policy agenda, engaging with local, state and national food system leaders and partners on a range of policy topics including:

  • federal funding opportunities for local and regional food systems
  • mobile slaughter and processing
  • food access and education
  • local food equity strategies
  • sustainable agriculture
  • pesticides and public health
  • and more!

A special PRE-EVENT will be held on Sunday November 7th from 5-6:30pm. FALLing for Food is a cook along with Growing and Growth Collective’s Adrienne Williams and Local Matters’ Michelle Moskowitz Brown.
